Due to the severe winds we experienced Friday, several roads in the area are still currently closed and there is the possibility that additional roads could become blocked overnight if trees or power lines come down. As a result, some buses may experience delays Monday, March 16, 2026 as our drivers safely navigate detours and changing road conditions.
Please be aware that if a road is closed or becomes unsafe due to fallen trees, wires, or other debris, we may not be able to access that road. In those situations, buses may be unable to reach certain stops until the road is cleared and deemed safe for travel. Our transportation team will be working closely with local officials and adjusting routes as needed throughout the morning.
We encourage families to monitor the Here Comes the Bus (HCTB) app to track your student’s bus in real time and see when it is approaching your stop.
We appreciate your patience and understanding as our drivers carefully work through these conditions. The safety of our students and staff will always remain our top priority.
