Last week was designated as School Bus Safety week, but with everything going on, it seemed more appropriate to celebrate it this week, when we can really focus on our Bus Drivers and Transportation Department. A special thank you goes out to the Mission Valley USD #330 - Transportation Department for all of their hard work and dedication to transporting our Mission Valley students to and from school and to so many activities throughout the school year. Believe it or not, this is a difficult job and our bus drivers keep our students and staff safe every day. In addition, Bill Logan consistently scores in the Excellence category for keeping our buses in tip top shape and is willing to provide services 24 hours a day when needed. They are all very much appreciated! Please join us in thanking them when you get a chance. Bus Drivers: Barbara Hewes Kathy Hildebrand Elaine Lloyd Jackie Martin Bob Riggin Pat Rutledge Kim Seastrom Dale Vawter Alesandra White Linda Willey Van Driver: Lynn MItchell Transportation Supervisor & Vehicle Maintenance: Bill Logan Transportation Director & Sub Bus Driver Mary Hewes

Fall Sport Pictures by Lifetouch are scheduled for this Wednesday with JH @ 2:30 & HS @ 3:00. Please make sure students bring their order form and cash or check for the package selected.

Elementary Parents: As you may have already figured out, our Halloween class parties will look a little different this year. The attached note is to inform you of the changes so you can prepare on your end. I really appreciate your patience and understanding as we do the best we can to celebrate, but also attempt to follow our Back to School Playbook and Wabaunsee County safety precautions. Thank you.
