We have worked with our transportation team and city/county officials and most of our school buses are able to navigate our community roads safely and efficiently. To that point, we will still have a few bus routes that need to be modified. If your student’s bus route is going to be modified, you will be contacted by First Student later this afternoon/evening or tomorrow morning. Additionally, bus pick ups may be a little slower than usual, so please be prepared for possible delays.
We will have extra personnel on hand tomorrow morning at each of our schools during arrival to assist with drop offs. Please be cautious and provide for some extra time as arrival will most likely be slower than usual.
Thank you again for your patience and flexibility over the past several days as we are excited to welcome back all our students and staff!
Be safe and stay warm!
