Transportation Changes
Our policy states that transportation changes may not be accepted over the phone. Please try to stick to this by sending transportation changes in a note or by coming to the office to write a note if at all possible. If a last minute issue arises, and you must make a change over the phone, you will need to have the transportation change approved by the principal. In order for this to be approved, you will need to have your current working phone number updated in our Power School system.
Also, this is the last week that parents will be allowed to walk students further than the foyer of the school. Beginning Tuesday, September 4th, students will have to walk from the foyer to their class by themselves. This is for safety purposes, and we appreciate your support and understanding.
Please notify Ms. Poston if you have any questions or concerns about any of this information. Thanks!
