REDWOOD OPENS SCHOOL YEAR ON CAMPUS
Masked and vaccinated students returned to the Redwood Campus on Wednesday, August 18 with hopes that this school year would "return to normal." Athletic teams are preparing for the season. Most everyone is responding to the newest Covid/Delta protocols in order to be with friends and engage in active learning. It really is a reminder of how precious our education is. Go Giants!
