All north school buses only are on snow routes today, Thursday, Feb. 19, due to road conditions. All schools are open and start at the regular Thursday time.

Snow routes include morning pickup and end-of-day dropoff. For additional information on bus routes, please call First Student at 360-841-7099, extension 1.

Primary school parents: If your child’s snow route stop is different from the regular stop, your child must be met at the stop by a parent or guardian or have a note to allow dropoff. Otherwise, the student will be transported back to the primary school.

Student and staff safety is our primary concern when making these decisions. If you feel that you cannot safely get your child to school or the bus, you may keep your child at home. Weather-related absences are excused if they are reported to the school by a parent or guardian.

Thank you and stay safe.
