Due to the extremely cold temperatures this morning, several of our school buses are running behind schedule. To ensure your child’s safety and comfort, please wait to send your student out to the bus stop until the bus is visible. As a reminder, parents always have the option to keep their children home during severe weather conditions. If you choose to do so, please report your student’s absence to the school office. Here are a few additional tips to prepare for cold weather: Ensure students are dressed in warm layers, including hats, gloves, and scarves. Be cautious of icy conditions around bus stops and walking routes. Consider carpooling with neighbors or driving your child to school if the weather poses challenges. We appreciate your understanding and patience as we prioritize the safety of our students.
