We ask families to use their best judgment if travel conditions in their area remain unsafe. If you believe travel is unsafe for your child, please contact your school's office. We also ask for patience with our bus drivers and school staff as they navigate morning routes and arrival procedures with care and caution.
Thank you for your continued cooperation and support as we prioritize the safety of our students and staff.
