❌🚌MCEA BUS SERVICES❌
📣Carpool families: please tell your students who they are traveling with to and from school - all students for the same vehicle are to meet at one designated pylon for one stop boarding - drivers: please remain in your vehicle during pick up and drop off - if you must exit to support your student, do so only at the eastern most pylon - this will help keep traffic flowing. Special circumstances should be shared with the school office before pick up times. Thank you!
👀Will your student be away from school? Please contact the office and let us know! ☎️705-658-4535 OR
ministik@mfidsab.ca 📱
❄️🧤Students: dress for the weather - hats, mitts, neck warmers, warm coat, snow pants and boots🙃

👀 eyes on the road and off your phone 🚫 📱
‼️with the significant snow melt and fluctuating temperatures, our small loop is closed and our roadways are narrow and sometimes slippery… please use extreme caution ⚠️
🦺🚸ALWAYS use the walking path (marked by cones) when walking to pick up or drop off students🚶♂️
➡️⛔️⚠️Please follow the rules of the road, posted signs, the flow of traffic, and the direction of school personnel - we all want to make sure arrivals and dismissals are safe and efficient 🚸
‼️All dropoffs: please use the large loop💖
