Our highest priority is always the safety and well-being of our students. To keep everyone safe and accounted for during next week’s parade, all students will be taking school-provided bus transportation to and from the parade. Driving individual vehicles will not be permitted this year.
We know changes like this can be an adjustment, and we sincerely appreciate your understanding and support. Thank you for partnering with us to keep our students safe and to make this parade a wonderful experience for everyone.
