Families,
Please be aware that we will be running bus evacuation drills at morning drop off today. Do not be alarmed if you see the children exiting the rear of the bus.
This is a mandatory drill that was purposely delayed to avoid added confusion and contact in the fall, when it is usually run.
Appreciate your patience.
Happy Friday!
Mr. Darnell
