TUTORING
After school tutoring has begun. Tutoring occurs Monday thru Thursday from 3:15 to 4:15 in the Media Center. Students who wish to go to tutoring need to sign up in the Media Center. There is no charge for after school tutoring. If parents wish to pick up their child during the tutoring time, they must go into the Media Center and sign the student out. When students are dismissed at 4:15 they may ride the 4:30 Activity bus home.
ACTIVITY BUS
We have a 4:30 P.M. and 5:30 P.M. Activity Bus. If students stay after school for a game, tutoring, detention, practice or a meeting, they may ride one of the Activity buses. The 4:30 P.M. bus begins loading at 4:15 in front of the main office in the circle drive. The 5:30 P.M. bus begins loading at 5:15 in front of the gym. There will be four buses for each late run. Students are to go to any one of the buses and tell the driver their address. The driver will then inform the student which bus he needs to ride that will go to the area where the student lives. PLEASE NOTE: the buses leave promptly at 4:30 and at 5:30. Students must be on the bus and seated at those times. The bus will not wait for late students. Please note that drop off on an activity bus may be different than the drop off on the regular school bus.
