Weekly E-Blast for MG
August 15, 2024
First Day of School- Buses
As always, the first day of school is usually met with some challenges. Most importantly, we need to make sure that we prioritize safety over efficiency. Thank you for your patience on the first couple of days as we work through any challenges with our buses and schedules in order to be sure everyone is safe. Please have students at the bus stop 10 minutes early and be there 10 minutes early to retrieve your child as well. However, please understand that buses may be late these first couple of days.
