Are you ready?

The first day of school is Wednesday, August 28.  Here are some ways to help you prepare:

• Make sure ONLINE REGISTRATION is complete this week.  Call/email the office (ncourville@aos93.org) if you need help.
• Mrs. Courville will be available with a couple laptops at the YMCA BACK TO SCHOOL BASH on WED, 8/21 4:30-6pm to help parents with registration, if needed. 
• Check the bus schedule--it's in LCNews and under the Parent Resource tab on the NCS website.  https://sites.google.com/a/aos93.org/ncs/  Be out at your stop at least 10 minutes before the scheduled time (and don't fret if the bus is a little late during those first few days.)  Be patient.  It takes a little time for the bus routes to settle into a routine.  After that, and for the rest of the year, try to allow yourself 5 minutes or more in case the bus is early on any particular day. 
• Be sure to let the school know if your child will not be taking the bus home at dismissal. You can supply us with a schedule if you will have a certain routine. If you need to change dismissal plans on any given date, try to contact school (via phone/email/note) by 9 am. 
• Students not taking the bus to school should plan to arrive between 7:50 and 8:05.  Your first class begins at 8:10 am.  
• Dig out that summer reading log; stick it in your backpack now!
• Get a good night's rest on August 27.  (Ok. That applies to staff and teachers too.)
• We look forward to seeing you soon!
