Parents,
Bus 22-12 (Which is the alternate bus for 21-05) has just left Elliott Point and is on its route. Please plan accordingly

Elliott Point Parents, According to transportation Bus 21-.05 (Dolphin Bus) maybe up to an hour late. The alternate bus will be 22-12. Again the new bus for today is 22-12 and may be up to an hour late from Elliott Point so please plan accordingly.

Parents,
Our Eagles had a great first day of school and we are looking forward to Day 2 tomorrow. Remember tomorrow, 8/13 is the last day for K & 1st grade parents ONLY to walk their child to class if you choose to. We appreciate everyone's patience as we worked through some unforeseen circumstances with transportation and look to be more efficient tomorrow.
Thank-You again and Welcome to Back Eagles!

Elliott Point Parents, We apologize but Bus 21-.05 (Dolphin Bus) has just left Elliott Point. The bus will not be 22-12. Again the new bus for today is 22-12 and just left Elliott Point so please plan accordingly.

Elliott Point Parents,
We apologize but Bus 21-.05 (Dolphin Bus) ONLY will be running later than usual today due to unforeseen circumstances. It is expected to be at least 40-minutes longer than normal.
Other buses may still be delayed due to typical first week variables. With that in mind please be patient at the bus stops. If it is more convenient for you to pick your child up instead of riding BUS 21-05 (Dolphin) bus today ONLY we will still have them at school until 2:45 before the bus leaves campus.

EP family members,
Monday begins our journey into the 24-25 school year. We had a wonderful turn out at orientation and I know everyone is ready to get back on a regular schedule again. Here are a few reminders that might help for Monday. Remember to allow your child enough time to get up early and get acclimated so they are not rushed. ONLY K and 1st grade parents may walk their child to the teacher classrooms (if they choose) for drop off and then leave for the first 2 days ONLY. This is not a time for a conference . We understand this may be an emotional day for our new Eagles and we want to accommodate for that. 2nd -5th grade students will walk to class on their own. The front doors open at 7:15 am but the hallways open up at 7:30 am so if you arrive earlier you will have to wait in the cafeteria until 7:30 to walk them to class. Classes start at 7:50 am everyday so students are considered tardy after 7:50 everyday. All parents will need to exit the building unless you are staying for our annual Boo-Hoo Breakfast ( Adults ONLY) for Coffee and Donuts in the media center directly after the announcements at 7:50 am.
Remember to be patient and plan for delays during dismissal the first few days until everyone gets adjusted.
Again Welcome Back and we look forward to seeing our Eagles Monday morning!
