In order to keep Bruceton students safe during dismissal, our school policy requires hand written notes for changes to your child's normal dismissal routine. For instance, if your child typically rides the bus and you want to pick them up, please send their teacher a note. If something arises and a change needs to be made during the school day, please drop off a note. We will not accept phone calls, as we have had some security issues with calls in the past. Also, if you need to sign your student out, please arrive prior to 2 pm. Anyone arriving after that time will need to join the parent pick up line. Please understand these policies are in place for your child's safety and protection.
Bus Announcement Bruceton Area Only - Bus 69-18, Shelley Reckart will not be running tomorrow Monday, February 3rd. We apologize for any inconvenience. Again, Bus 69-18 not running tomorrow.
