Students that have a bus stop on a dirt road will not have bus transportation to school today due to their road conditions. If your child is absent from school today due to this situation it will be an excused absence. You must call the school and let them know that this is the cause of the absence. Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. We were just recently made aware of this situation from one of our bus drivers.
