Emergency Information
Limited transportation routes are put into effect when road conditions in certain areas are judged hazardous for safe bus travel. Students will need to walk to the modified route/bus stops which can be accessed using the inclement weather routes link below. When we are operating on “LIMITED TRANSPORTATION" the modified routes/bus stops are in effect.
***IMPORTANT NOTE*** To eliminate confusion, students will be dropped off at the same places where they were picked up in the morning. This will be done even if the weather conditions have improved during the day. Inclement Weather Routes
