BIG THANK YOU to our STUDENT BUS MARSHALS & BUS DRIVERS (and Wildcat Parents) for a less-than-routine year. Over the past several weeks of the school year, we've "piloted" a program that used a few chosen older students from Manor under the guidance of bus drivers and the Transportation Director to be present on bus runs. The first two "Marshals" in the program were 7th graders, Collin McCarty & Jaxon White. We added a Marshal-in-training as well (Xavier Riggs, 7th gr. - not pictured). All three worked with drivers to make sure bus trips were as safe as possible. Again, a big thank you to Collin, Jaxon, & Xavier!
Reminder to all families that there will be NO after school Latchkey services tomorrow, May 25. Thanks!
