Last night we recognized our eighth grade baseball players that play on The Tribe! Go boys!
Johannes Bus Company is working on consolidating our bus routes into 3 routes in order to gain some consistency for you all. I will be sending out the morning pick up times shortly via Teacherease. Since this will be like new routes, please give your driver 10-15 minutes plus or minus for your assigned stop time.
Today's afternoon routes will be the 3 bus routes, therefore you could experience some delay in the times your child(ren) typically have been arriving to their destination.
Thank you all so much for your patience as the school works through these busing issues with our bus company.
We were just notified by JoHannes Bus that Bus 4 will not be running today’s morning route.
Bus 4 riders will be split between Bus 1 and Bus 3 this morning.
Both Bus 1 and Bus 3 routes will be running approximately 15-30 minutes late.
We apologize for this inconvenience.

Waltham Families,
Bus #3 will be running 20-30 minutes late. All other buses should be running on time. Again, I would like to apologize for this huge inconvenience. I assure you that I am working daily with Johannes Bus Company to try to alleviate these delays.
If anyone would like to temporarily change the transportation status for your child to car rider either morning or afternoon or both, please contact the school office and we will make the change. Once we get this transportation issue resolved we can change your child’s transportation status back to bus rider.
Again, my apologies for this inconvenience.
