Buses need to leave at exactly the departure times for students to have a little time at their lockers to prepare for classes. If you miss the departure times of precisely 8:20 a.m. and 8:25 a.m., please ensure your son or daughter has an alternative transportation to arrive at school before the 9:00 a.m. bell!
