Staff and students alike are settled in and working hard already.
This will the

If there is room, students may ride a different bus home if they have permission and a bus pass. There are two ways to obtain a bus pass: 1) Parents may call the school 360-833-5850 by 10:30 a.m. to give the necessary information, OR 2) Students may bring a note signed by their parent that includes the necessary information. Notes must be turned in to the basket outside Mrs Ells’ window by 10:30 a.m. also. Necessary information is the first and last name of the student seeking the bus pass, the first and last name of the student to be ridden home with, and the bus number. Once approved, bus passes may be picked up from the bulletin board outside Mrs Ells’ window at lunch or after school.
Show your Liberty Pride! Great for gifts!
