What a FABULOUS first two days of school!!!!! The excitement and happiness was bubbling all over D114! We look forward to our PreK students starting on Thursday! CAN'T WAIT!
✅ALL changes to a student's transportation must be communicated to the school office. Please DO NOT just email or communicate these to the classroom teacher--they are super busy during their day and may not see your email or get your voicemail.
✅Please remember that our bus routes may run a little slower to start the year as everyone gets used to the times and as our PreK students join routes. Thanks for your patience!
✅When dropping off or picking up students, PLEASE drive slowly! Our students and staff are our most precious people...so please drive slowly, follow the procedures, and stay off your cell phone. THANK YOU!!!
✅To help make our bus routes even more effective, clear, and safe, we are COLOR CODING routes. If your child rides a bus, you'll find a color coded bus tag on their desk at Meet and Greet. This tag matches their bus route color and will help us all make sure kids are on the correct bus. If your child rides more than one route...no worries! We will give them the tags they need!
