If you registered for bussing but have decided that your child(ren) will NOT be riding the bus, please cancel the bus registration. If you don’t cancel the bus registration (through MyCBE), by September 30, you will be charged the bussing fee.
The students will run approximately one lap of our school field. Parents and other family members may participate outside with their student.
