Be aware that our managing software, Charms, was bought out by another company earlier this year. That company is phasing Charms out this summer and a new system will be in place for the 24-25 school year. It will hopefully be easier for you to access and easier for us to manage, but be prepared for some changes! More information will be sent out as we transition. Additionally, REMIND has changed in the past year, which has limited our ability to use it effectively. We are going to be transitioning to using the "Band" app, which we used in London. There are many capabilities of that app. Your phone will not blow up with messages like it did in London - there are ways to change settings and offer options with the App. More information coming as we start transitioning!
