Good morning,
Today is Friday, December 19th. Road conditions are much better than expected this morning. While it remains cold and windy, with a handful of slick spots, all buses will run their regular routes today.
We would like to thank the Road Commissioners and their crews for their continued efforts to keep our roads safe as well as our Transportation Department and Bus Drivers as they transport our students to and from school safely.
Please make sure your student is dressed for the wind and low temps, especially if they will be waiting outside for the bus. As a reminder, today is a 2:00 p.m. dismissal day.
Thank you, and have a safe day.
