School News & Information:

TRANSPORTATION SAFETY NOTICE:
Please be alert as to the weather and road conditions at your bus stops and be sure to monitor children in the roads at all times.  Secondary roadways can be very slick due to snow, ice and especially black ice.
As the school year progresses, it is all too easy to become complacent when it comes to bus stop safety.  That morning bus stop wait or afternoon eagerness to get home has the potential to become a dangerous combination of events resulting in harm to a child or parent.
We remind our bus drivers every morning and every afternoon to exercise extreme caution as they drive - in ALL weather conditions.  I have asked that they also remind students while aboard the bus to be aware at their bus stops.
We appreciate your cooperation and support in our effort to keep all our children safe.
