Good afternoon,
The school just received a call from Johannes Bus Company that all buses will be late leaving school today. Bus 1, Bus 2, & Bus4 will all be 10-15 minutes late arriving to school to pick up our students.
Bus 3 will be 20-30 minutes late today also.
If you need to make other arrangements please contact the school.
Again my apologies for these continued delays.

Happy Monday! Bus 3 will again be approximately 20-30 minutes late leaving school today. If you need to make other arrangements to pick up your child please contact the school.

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.

The school was notified by the bus company that today's afternoon buses will all run their normal routes with the exception of Bus#3 running approximately 20 minutes late. If you need to make other arrangements to pick up your child please contact the school.
Our apologies for all these bus issues but we do see it getting better with each school day :)
We have been notified that we will be down one bus for today's dismissal. We will only have buses 2, 3 and 4 running. Many students have been reassigned to another bus. Your student's arrival time home today will be different. Bus #3 will be leaving at least 30 minutes late from the school. If you will be making other dismissal arrangements for your child/children today, please contact the office. Thank you for your continued patience with our buses.
