10 Things to Know for Fall Break through the End of the Semester

Hi Students,

We have just one week left to go before a much-deserved Fall Break! And while we are all eager to get there, I know there are also some questions and concerns swirling as we prepare for virtual learning for the rest of the semester and face growing COVID-19 cases across the nation. We are all tired so I have tried to pull together a quick list of useful information and resources below.

Whether you are staying in Fort Collins, leaving town, or remaining in another location, I wish you well. It’s been a long haul since August and I am so proud that we have made it this far.

10 Things to Know for Fall Break through the End of the Semester:
