Bus Notices

Families are receiving transportation information this week. The mailer includes your student’s drop-off and pick-up times for a regular, full school day. As you know, your school has announced an early dismissal schedule for the beginning of school. Please plan for an early dismissal time until your school notifies you otherwise. For Desmares, Robert Hunter, Copper Hill, and Barley Sheaf: The afternoon drop-off time on early dismissal days is two hours and fifteen minutes earlier than the time listed on the mailer you received. (same as the normal early dismissal schedule) For RFIS and JP Case: The afternoon drop-off time on early dismissal days is two hours and ten minutes earlier than the time listed on the mailer you received. (same as the normal early dismissal schedule)

Visit our District’s Summer Reading Initiative web page and explore all the possibilities.
