Important Information: Safe Arrival Program
Dear Parents and Guardians,
As the snow is upon us and we have had our first inclement weather day we would like to go over our inclement weather policies for safe arrival. As per the boards website:
On days when buses are cancelled due to inclement weather, the Safe Arrival program continues. For parents/guardians of students who ride the bus on these days, if you receive a call and believe that your child should be in attendance, you are asked to please call the school. Otherwise, the school will assume that you are aware of your child's absence. Families of students who walk to school should call the school if their children are not attending on inclement weather days.
