Transportation Update – Hwy 40 Construction
Dear Families,
We want to make you aware of ongoing road construction on Hwy 40 and how it may impact our bus routes.
At this time, we anticipate delays affecting our route to November. Please be aware that afternoon drop-offs in Milner may run slightly later than usual depending on construction delays. We ask that you continue to arrive at your normal pick-up time, as exact delays may vary day to day.
We are currently working on a plan for our morning route to Milner and how to best adjust to these changes. If your student’s bus stop is directly affected, you will be contacted with specific information.
We appreciate your patience as we navigate this over the next few days and work to find the best solution for our students and families. Please note that if your student arrives late to school due to these bus delays, they will not be marked tardy.
Thank you for your understanding and support.
Queremos informarles sobre la construcción en la Hwy 40 y cómo puede afectar nuestras rutas de autobús.
En este momento, anticipamos retrasos que afectarán nuestra ruta hacia November. Por favor tengan en cuenta que las paradas de la tarde en Milner pueden ser un poco más tarde de lo habitual, dependiendo de los retrasos por la construcción. Les pedimos que continúen llegando a la hora normal de recogida, ya que los retrasos pueden variar cada día.
Actualmente estamos trabajando en un plan para nuestra ruta de la mañana hacia Milner y cómo ajustarnos mejor a estos cambios. Si la parada de autobús de su estudiante se ve directamente afectada, nos comunicaremos con ustedes para brindarles información específica.
Agradecemos su paciencia mientras trabajamos durante los próximos días para encontrar la mejor solución para nuestros estudiantes y familias. Tengan en cuenta que si su estudiante llega tarde a la escuela debido a estos retrasos, no será marcado como tarde.
Gracias por su comprensión y apoyo.
Atentamente,
Sincerely,
Transportation Department

We invite community members to join us for a classroom visitation experience at Hayden High School on Thursday, February 12. This opportunity is designed to provide the opportunity to observe teaching and learning across our school, and to strengthen the meaningful connection between our schools and community.
Participants will meet in the Board Room at 8:30 a.m. for a brief orientation. Classroom visits will begin at 9:00 a.m., with opportunities to visit classrooms at 9:00 - 9:25 a.m., 9:30 – 9:55, and during C3 Club time from 10:05–10:25 a.m. We will reconvene in the Board Room at 10:30 for conversation, questions, reflection, and lunch.
