For tomorrow, Friday, Jan 17, Brad and Holly will run the same snow routes that they have the past two days. Ms. Gentry will start her route at 7:15 by heading north up Spring Garden Ln and will pick up students as she goes. She will then turn onto 142 and go to Don A Sue Ln about 7:25. She will wait there for 10 min for anyone to get on the bus there. From there she will go east on 142 to Log Cabin picking up students. She will come back on 142 to Nagel Ln and stop at Howard Chapel Church and wait there for about 5 min for riders before heading back to school. The gym door at the Elementary School will be open at 7:00 for anyone dropping students off early. Thank you.
Just a reminder that Friday, January 17, is a 11:15 dismissal day. It is also a House Group day, so all students will be dismissed from the Elementary School beginning at 11:00 for car riders and bus riders shortly thereafter.
We will run the same snow bus routes that we ran today on Thursday, January 16. Ms. Gentry will once again be at the Elementary School at 7:00am for anyone who needs to drop their child off early. We are looking forward to the 40 degrees temperature tomorrow!! Thank you everyone for your support and cooperation.
Here are the snow bus routes that we will run tomorrow, January 14 morning and afternoon. If you ride Holly's bus she will start her route at 7:20 on Campground Rd in Bonnie. She will then turn left onto Crosnoe and then left onto 3rd St. She will then stop at Lang Furniture at about 7:25 to pick up all other students in the Bonnie area. From there she will get on Hwy 37 and go south to Ina stopping to pick up students on 37 on her route. In Ina she will stop at the corner of 3rd St and Oak and then go to the middle school. She will then run her shuttle bus to the Elementary School as normal.
If you ride Brad's bus route: He will start his route at 7:20 in Spring Garden at 15789 E Tilton Rd. Everyone on the country route should meet him there if they want to ride the bus. Next he will stop at the corner of Park St and E Ina Blacktop in Ina at about 7:30.

Ms. Gentry's bus route will not run tomorrow morning. The roads are still really bad in this area. Ms. Gentry will be at the Elementary School at 7:00am if anyone would like to drop their child off early at the gym door. She will then run her shuttle bus to the Middle School as normal.
Thank you for your support.
