Adjustments to Pick/ Drop Offs
Viking Friends and Families, we are continuing to work on our pickup and drop off procedures. I appreciate your patience and understanding. As you may know, our bus lane has a slight glitch. Any solution that we can come up with would simply be a band aide to the relieve the congestion. However, next week we will try a few adjustments to see if can help alleviate some of the congestion that occurs as well as make sure our students can get on and off the bus.

Please Report Student Absences
