REMINDER: BUS OPT-OUT DEADLINE
Next week is a short, but full week.
The first item up is the Wednesday, Sept. 8, deadline to submit your survey indicating your plans to opt-out of Bus transportation through January 2022. The survey is only to be submitted by parents who wish to opt out of using the bus fully until the new year. We appreciate all the feedback from parents wanting to help with this issue.
SUPERINTENDENT SEARCH STARTING
Also next week, families will begin to see postcards in their mailboxes, inviting them to participate in the search for the next Superintendent of Schools and outlining the process.
