Hello Morris Families!
Please be sure to check your Infinite Campus Parent Portal as teacher assignments will be released on August 12! If you have any questions, please feel free to give me a call at the office or email me!
If your child is not returning to Bondurant Schools, please contact Holly Roby and let her know where your child is going to be going so she can do what she needs to do on her end. If you already let us know, please disregard.

Bus Riders
Please be patient with us on the first couple of days of school. It is quite possible that we may be a few minutes early or late with pick up and drop off. Be sure to have students at their bus stop at least five minutes early to make sure they do not miss the bus. After a few days, times will become more regular. With all bus questions, comments, or concerns, please contact:

Illness & Exclusion Policies
To prevent the spread of disease and to protect all of the other students at school, please keep your child home if he/she has any of the following symptoms:
- temperature of 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit or higher
- vomiting
- diarrhea
- severe sore throat
- eyes with inflammation, redness, and watery or purulent drainage
- communicable disease
If a student becomes ill during school, the parent/guardian of the student must be contacted before a student is allowed to leave the building. It is important to provide your student's school with updated contact numbers so parents/guardians may be reached concerning illness, as well as emergencies.
Students are welcome to return to school once they have been symptom-free (without medicine) for 24 hours. As always, please contact Nurse Dori if you have any questions or concerns about your child's health.
