Dear SJCSD Parents and Guardians,
I hope you and your child are starting to adapt to the online environment. This has been a learning week for everyone, and I am confident that the problems we have faced are being resolved. Our teachers continue to do amazing work for the benefit of all children.
Today, I have made the very difficult decision to cancel all traditional high school graduations. The UNF arena is no longer available and I believe our high schools need to be consistent in how we celebrate the Class of 2020. In addition, COVID-19 could still be a threat into the summer, we simply do not know. Your school will communicate virtual graduation plans as soon as they are finalized.
Have a great Friday, and a restful weekend. Stay safe and enjoy your family.
Sincerely,
Tim Forson
Superintendent of Schools
St. Johns County School District
