Tomorrow morning is a School Bus Evacuation Safety Drill.  Please note: For those who are following the BusRight App your child's bus will be going to the Bus Garage to complete the drill. All of the buses will complete the drill and then transport the kids to school. This is for both MS/HS and Townsend. If late, the students will not be marked tardy.

Michigan Summer EBT is a program to help families buy food for their school-aged children during the summer. Families will get $120 for each eligible child to buy groceries during the summer. Children who get Michigan Summer EBT can still participate in other summer meal programs. Some families will get Summer EBT benefits automatically, but some families will need to apply. Families must meet the income and program requirements to be eligible. Applying for or receiving Summer EBT does not affect the immigration status of your children or family. Visit the website below for more information. https://www.michigan.gov/mdhhs/assistanceprograms/food/summer-ebt
