End of Day Transportation Changes

We ask that you please call the school by 3:00 p.m. with any student “end-of-day” transportation changes. Our goal is to avoid classroom interruptions after 3 p.m., as this is the time our teachers are wrapping up their daily instructions. After this time we will not be able to guarantee delivery of the changes before our 3:17 p.m. dismissal.
