Good Afternoon Summer School Parents,
Please read the following message below in reference to dismissal.
We are closely monitoring the rain percentages for today. If it is raining at our dismissal time of 12:30 PM, all walkers will need to be picked up from the bus ramp instead of walking home.
If the weather permits at that time, students who normally walk home will be allowed to do so as usual. Pick-up is only mandatory if it is raining.
If you have any questions or concerns, please call us at 229-431-3338.
Thank you for your flexibility and support.
