Arrival Time 11-11:15pm

The busses are in Worcester.  Students should be home between 11:00 and 11:15pm.

Almost home!

We're on the last leg of our trip!!! Just switched drivers in CT. We'll be home around 11:15!

Parking/Pick-up

Just a reminder to everyone picking up tonight to make sure that you don't park in the bus lane.  The spots where most of you dropped off in front of the school would be best.  The building will not be open upon your child's return to TMS.  See you then.

Getting there

Current projection has us back around 11:15

ETA Update

We are more than halfway home now! I just checked with our fabulous bus driver and our ETA as of right now is 11:15pm. Keep your fingers crossed for the clear roads to continue!

Today

We had a great informational meeting today with the kids.  A lot of good questions were asked and answered.  Tomorrow will be when the information about the roommates, chaperones and bus information.  It will also be when backpacks are distributed.

We are asking kids to bring in DVDs tomorrow if they want to watch them on the bus, they need to be on my desk tomorrow morning with a sticky note with their name on it.  Thanks!

Update on the upcoming DC trip for parents/guardians - 4/3/13

Any medication that your child needs to take must be brought to the school nurse tomorrow, 4/4/13.

There will be an informational meeting with the children who are going to Washington DC tomorrow during school.  At the end of the meeting there will be plenty of time for questions and answers.  If you have any questions, please let your child know to ask them and we'll answer them to the best of our ability.  The only questions that won't be answered will be about room assignments, bus assignments and chaperones

On Friday, all 8th graders going to Washington DC will meeting right before school gets out to receive their backpack (which is the ONLY carry-on that will be allowed; they must use this bag) and find out their chaperones, bus assignments and room assignments.

Important Information About Drop Off For Parents:
~ Students must arrive at the school between 4:00am and 4:15am.
~ Students must report to their designated area at that time (Bus 1 to the gym, Bus 2 to the auditorium and Bus 3 to the cafeteria) with their 1 luggage bag and their 1 carry-on (the backpack given to them on Friday) and check in with their chaperone.
~ The lanyard and luggage tag that were put in their carry-on on Friday afternoon must be filled out.  The luggage tag should be on their bag and their lanyard should be in their carry-on.
