If your child is not riding the bus as they usually do, a note from a parent has been requested for the drivers or call your child’s bus driver (Al & Ellen Bongers – 402-545-3311; Lyle Divis – 402-545-2161; Ernie Kabourek – 402-545-3801; MaryAnn Kudlacek – 402-545-3371; Gary Polacek 402-543-2469; Kim TePoel 402- 663-4439; and Taylor Pollock 402-663-4358). If a note or phone call from the parent is not supplied, the student will be taken to their regular destination. Students should not write their own notes or give just a verbal notice of the change in plans. This should eliminate any question of the parent’s intentions for the student. It would also be very helpful for all students to know their after school plan before they get to school in the morning. Please try to limit calls to the office making last minute changes. This creates confusion for everyone. Your attention to this matter is appreciated. Thank you. ______
