Bus Rider Information from WCPSS
- If your (transportation eligible) child will be riding the bus from the same address to the same school next year, you do not need to take action. If you need to update your bus service, please go online at www.wcpss.net/busrider. On Friday, May 11, 2018, we will begin receiving (via the web and theTransportation Module) requests from transportation eligible families for the 2018-19 school year.
- Any transportation eligible family who needs to make a change for 2018-19 is requested to complete transportation requests by June 11th to ensure service on the first day of year round school.
- Up-to-date transportation information is available in your student’s Home Base/PowerSchool account. See the next section in the newsletter for more information on Home Base.
- If your student is assigned to a bus but is not a bus rider, please submit the decline bus form at www.wcpss.net/declinebus so that we have the most up-to-date information
Home Base

Families with multiple students can also set up their accounts to view all of their students at one time, with one login.

The PTA needs your help to put together the student slide show and with refreshments for both celebrations! Below is the link for the signup genius! We especially need 4th grade parents to assist the day of!
Looking for a few people to help out with the School Gardens!
We are in need of at least 2 people to help with Little Green Thumbs Club. This club meets the 2nd and 4th Thursday, March through October. Kim Riffle and Angela Hawkins will be leaving the school at the end of THIS school year. Melisa Harrison will be continuing, but will NEED HELP! She can not do it by herself. We would love to help make a smooth transition for Little Green Thumbs Club. Otherwise, the club will be in jeopardy of continuing. You do not need extensive knowledge about gardening, just a desire to garden!
If you are even the least bit interested, please contact us via email hsesgardenclub@gmail.com We would love to meet you in the gardens and talk about our experience.
