Just a few reminders as we prepare for the first day. School will begin each day at 8:10am and dismiss at 3:16pm. (No drop off/arrival before 7:30am) Bus drivers for morning and afternoon routes are the same as last year and the routes should be similar, along with pick up times. It is the first day, so please be ready a little early and be patient with us as we work through minor adjustments through the first week of school. Our West Plains bus will leave the Civic Center at 8:05am. Please do not park in front of the elementary for after school pick up due to the bus loading. Thank you and we look forward to welcoming you all in the morning!!
