LATE START WEDNESDAYS
We will begin “Late Start Wednesdays” for the 2023-2024 school year beginning August 16, 2023. On those days, school will begin at 8:30 am in both buildings. This means that the buses will run 30 minutes later on Wednesday mornings. We will release at our normally scheduled time of 3:05 pm.
Two-Hour Delay Protocol - In the event of a 2-hour delay on a Wednesday, “Late Start Wednesday” will be canceled.
PM E-Learning Day on Wednesday Protocol - “Late Start Wednesday” will NOT take place in conjunction with our already scheduled Wednesday PM E-Learning Days (August, 23, February 7, April 10). The school will run on time those days and release at 11:40 am.
Early Drop OFF - Students who do not ride the bus may be dropped off at 7:45 am on Wednesday for a morning latchkey program. At this time there is no cost to this one-day morning latch key option.
If you have any questions about “Late Start Wednesday,” please reach out to Mrs. Wordinger (tracy.wordinger@brv.k12.in.us).
