Student Late Bus

This is a reminder that any student staying after school for sports/clubs/activities and planning to utilize the late bus must have a signed permission slip. The bus runs Monday-Thursday.

All signed permission slips should be turned in to Mr. Klossner, who will then add students to the official bus list. Students without a signed permission slip will not be permitted to ride the late bus and will need to be picked up promptly at the end time.

Permission For LATE BUS:
