Good afternoon Chelsea Families.
Tomorrow, Tuesday April 23, Chelsea Elementary will not have enough bus drivers to do all of our normal runs at one time. To get all of our students to school and home the following changes have been made for tomorrow only.
The CAT bus will pick up students about an hour later in the morning. Students will arrive at school approximately one hour late, and will not be marked tardy.
The FROG bus will be dismissed at 1:30pm and students on that bus will be home an hour early. If you want to have your child stay the entire day, you can pick them up at our normal 2:30pm dismissal time. Please call the office first thing in the morning and let Carol or Becky know at 582-2214 that you will pick them up.
We plan to resume our regular bussing schedule on Wednesday, April 24.
Best,
Allison Hernandez
Principal
