SNOWY SIDEWALKS - I am not sure who was so kind to ensure our sidewalks were snow and ice free for the kids and staff to return, but we are extremely thankful! That was such a selfless act. THANK YOU!
Please remember if your child’s bus did not run this morning and you dropped them off, you will need to pick them up after school.
Also, if your child is absent today due to bus issues, please call the office so we can code this absence appropriately.
CAUTION - The parent loop at BMS is a little slick getting into it. The county worked the area the best they could. Just use caution and patience getting into the line. Stay warm!
