Bus riders and parents please allow 5-10 minutes before or after your scheduled pickup/dropoff times. The first week of the school year always brings unforeseen or unavoidable challenges, but we will persevere through them as best we can. I pray for a great school year for you, your students, and our school. If you have any questions or concerns about this message please call (252) 448-2451. Take care!
