The Weekly Update #4

The building is open Monday - Thursday from 8 am to 4 pm.

Bus Transportation Requests for 24-25 ended on August 6, 2024. If your child needs the bus and is a new rider, and you did not request it, it may take two weeks before they are eligible to ride. Students who live within 1 mile of the school are not eligible for the bus since this is considered to be the walk zone.

Reminder: K2 forms need to be updated each year. This is the form that allows students in kindergarten, 1st and 2nd grade to get off the bus alone or with a caregiver other than a parent. The form needed is called a bus drop off form and it can be found here.

Thank you to all the parents that have completed your Beginning of the year (BOY) paperwork. For parents of new kindergarteners, if your child attended Pre-K, you still need to fill out a BOY. BOY allows parents to update emergency contacts, phone numbers, and FERPA. For Beginning of the year paperwork (2024-2025) click here

If you are interested in volunteering at Williams, you must go through Volunteer Orientation. Click here for more info.

*Our Fall Book Fair will be 9/16 - 9/20 and we will need volunteers for that.*

Cards must be linked each Year. MCW is 4253

A K2 form is used by Transportation to allow students in Kindergarten through 2nd grade to get off the School bus with someone besides a parent, or to get off the bus alone. These forms can be put into place if they are being met at the bus by a grandparent or babysitter. They are also used if the K-2 student is getting off the bus with an older sibling.

If a parent is running late to the stop, and is not there when the bus arrives, their child will be brought back to the school and the parent will be notified.

**Note** If a child has a K2 form in place, but for any reason feels uncomfortable getting off the bus alone, they will be brought back to the school and the parent will be notified to come and pick up the student from the front office.

These forms are only good for 1 school year so if you have a child that will be in K-2 and they rode the bus last year, they will need a current K2 form filled out. Attached is a link to the form that can be printed and filled out and emailed to either nicole.voigt@nhcs.net or emily.lechleider@nhcs.net.
