Good Afternoon Middle School parents: As you know, we are working on the double bus route issue that is causing some of our students to miss their first classes of the day on a regular basis. Many of you already know that we are getting closer to a solution but I wanted you to be aware of some options that we have been offering our MS since the start and will continue to do while we are dealing with this issue. Many teachers have been meeting with these students during their prep periods and lunch periods. We also have teachers staying after school to help these students in academic recovery. Students that are not picked up by parents and are waiting in Athletic Study Hall for their bus at the end of the day are encouraged to let a teacher know that they are in there and the teachers will make arrangements to meet with them during that time. Again, we apologize for this issue but we want you to know that staff is working hard to try to help students stay current in their classes. Please make sure that your child is taking advantage of any of the opportnties being afforded to them by the staff. If you have any questions or further concerns please reach out to your child's teacher. You can also reach me at rwitkiewicz@nacs1.org Thank you for your patience and understanding during this time.
