Hello Families! I hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the summer!
August 22, 2024 is our Popsicle Party and resource information evening at Brookside 5:30- 6:45! We hope to see you there!
The deadline for bus pass registration was Friday August 9th. Any registrations that come in going forward are not guaranteed to be routed by the first week of school. All bus passes were mailed out this week to families that registered for passes by August 9th,, so families should be receiving them this week. The fee for a replacement is $5/ pass. There may be a few families who registered by the deadline who do not get their passes if we are waiting on a payment or verification of free/reduced lunch.
The bus company is working on the routes and the routes should be available soon. The routes will be posted on our website. Please be aware of the following when you register for a bus pass:
All students will be assigned to the bus stop closest to his/her home address unless the morning and/or afternoon daycare information is completed. Students must attend the school in the attendance zone in which they reside. Transportation will not be provided across school zones.
School bus stops, drivers, and routes are not permanent and are subject to change.
