This is an important message for the parents of students who attended the field trip today to Walnut Grove: Due to extremely heavy traffic, the students on the field trip will not make it back to school before dismissal. Students will return to the school by 3:30 pm. If possible, please have someone to pick up your child at the front of the school at 3:30. Due to the short notice, if you cannot make it to pick your student up, they will be taken home by the bus. If your child is part of Be Great Academy, they will go there like normal.
All students not picked up by 3:30 will be taken home on the bus. Thank you for your patience as we get everyone home safely!
