Attention all Parents: Picture day is coming!

Thursday, November 4,2021

Attention Parents:

This is a reminder of a process that is in our Parent Handbook and has always been the expectation. All transportation changes are handled by your child's classroom teacher. Please send your student with a written note to give to their teacher or you can send the teacher a Dojo message the night before or prior to 8:00 am to ensure the teacher gets the message. First Ward does not take transportation changes over the phone for the safety of all students. If you have a change during the day, you must fax (not email) your change prior to 3:15 pm to 980-343-5587 and it should include (teacher name, student name and parent contact number). Thank you for your cooperation!
