Gila Crossing Families, Those students that attend after school sessions WILL be expected to work hard to bridge their learning gaps that have arisen due to lack of in-person learning over the past few years. Students will be expected to complete assignments and complete academic activities. There will be few "fun" activities during the week as a result. "FUN" activities will be limited to Saturday school sessions taking place throughout the Fall semester. Thank you all for your consideration in this matter.
