The buses did not leave our campus until about 4 PM but should be arriving soon. We apologize for the delay! If you use our carline, please use the PikMyKid app to announce your arrival in the afternoon, as that will speed up our process. We hope everyone had a great day 1!

This app will be used for the car line as well as all transportation-related notifications. One of the coolest features is that it allows you to load your child's pick up schedule, making transportation changes and routines seamless!

Please visit the Parent Resources Page (link below) to learn more. This page provides important information to help you get set up and stay informed before the school year begins.
