3:00:3:45 I-P

Parents will need to complete their child’s packet from their teacher. It will include:

• Dismissal tags will be given to all families even if students are not car riders. Tags will be used if your child needs to be a car rider, picked up early through the office, etc. Every family will be assigned a number. Bronco Club will have their own pick up tag.

• A “first day of school” sticker. Since parents are not allowed into school the first day, this sticker will help staff get each student to their classroom.

• School forms and information.

Please remember your I.D. when you are coming to check out a student in or out. Thank you for your continued understanding and cooperation.

If someone other than a parent or guardian is picking up a student, they must be on the pick-up list or the parent/guardian must call the Office. Do not email teachers with transportation changes, the OFFICE will notify the teacher. All changes must be made PRIOR to 1:30 p.m.

Water fountains and bottle fillers will be on and available for hands free refilling of personal water bottles. Students are strongly encouraged to bring their own bottle and not share with others. It is important that students are able to open and close bottles securely by themselves. PLEASE LABEL WITH YOUR CHILD'S NAME.

Parents must complete a clinic form in order for prescription or non-prescription medication to be administered at school.

DO NOT SEND MEDICATIONS TO SCHOOL WITH THE STUDENT.

You must get the Official School Form from the school’s nurse for all prescription and non-prescription medicine and return it with the medicine. The nurse or the principal’s designee will be the only individual allowed to give medicine. If your child becomes ill at school, we will contact you immediately. If we cannot reach you, we will use the emergency contact information you have provided.

Over the past two years, all students have received free school meals due to USDA federal waivers. Unfortunately, these federal waivers have expired. Mustang Public Schools is encouraging all families to complete a free and reduced meal application this year. It is more important now than ever before.

Meal Prices for 2022-23:

• Student Breakfast - $2.25

• Student Lunch -$3.25

Enroll in “My School Bucks” to monitor your child’s lunch account and deposit money; see if you are available to receive financial support for your child’s breakfast and lunch costs by completing the online “Free and Reduced Lunch” application. Child Nutrition/Food Service - Mustang Public Schools

BUSES WILL COMPLETE A PRACTICE RUN ON 8/10/23 AT THE SCHEDULED TIMES IF PARENTS ARE INTERESTED IN SEEING IT - NO STUDENTS WILL BOARD BUSES DURING THE PRACTICE RUN.

Mustang Public School’s buses are the safest way to get to and from school each day. Statistics from the School Bus Information Council show that buses are safer for students than airlines, passenger trains and passenger cars, which have the highest injury rate.

Mustang’s bus drivers go through strict training, which includes written tests as well as driving instruction and a driving test. New bus drivers will have a minimum of 15 hours on-the-road training with Mustang transportation department staff before they begin transporting children. Training is provided in-house.

Besides the benefits of safety, when more students ride the bus it significantly reduces congestion around the schools. It is also means a gas savings for parents.

• Routes - To access route information, simply go to elink.mustangps.org. Be sure to uncheck the box next to “Authenticate using Network Credentials.” Then enter the username of mustang, and the password is guest.

• If your address is NOT populating in the finder, please call our district office for assistance at (405)376-2630.

• As always, we appreciate your patience with our team each year as our school district continues to grow and new neighborhoods are established.

• Safety - Please take a moment to review this to view an Infographic on Oklahoma Bus Laws. Drive Safely!
