Good Morning, I hope you are all well as we enter the second half of the 2022/23 school year. As you may know, we are having a bus driver shortage. We are now unfortunately facing a more challenging situation as we have multiple drivers out for a variety of reasons over the next few weeks. We are working on several different options to help us transport our students to and from school as well as to mandatory programs outside of the district. We are currently looking to combine any routes we can. Other options we are considering are much more difficult. These include going virtual or possibly having to cancel or "brown out" routes on a rotating basis. I will also be speaking with other districts about other possible options. We are doing everything we can to avoid canceling bus routes and going virtual, but this may be necessary. Thank you for understanding, we will continue to communicate as needed. As always please reach out to me at any time. Eric Hartz Superintendent
