Superintendent Minute: A Dependable Ride
CSD17 Families, School will be in session on Monday, January 26. Students should dress in layers. Those who ride the bus should wait at their front door for buses to arrive as they will provide time for students to board. This will cause some delay to the typical bus schedule. Thank you!
