The form will be located at the above link and also on the Masonboro Elementary School website.
WE CANNOT ACCOMMODATE TRANSPORTATION CHANGES AFTER 2:00 PM.
Morning Walking Club For Early Arriving Students
Mon- Fri:
o Mon: 2nd and 3rd Grade
o T/Th: K and 1st Grade
o Wed: 2nd – 5th Grade
o Fri: 4th and 5th Grade
Walking club provides students that arrive before the bell rings an opportunity to walk laps before school starts. It’s a great way to get energy out and visit with friends before the school day starts. A key component to walking club is parent volunteers! Are you an early bird and you are looking for a great way to get involved at school and get to know your child’s peers? Being a walking club volunteer is a great way to be involved in the Masonboro community! If you are interested in learning more, please email Amber Beard at alt3122@gmail.com.
