Parents, thank you for your patience as we have returned to school. I know this has been frustrating to some, especially when transportation has not been available for all students. As a reminder, if your child cannot access transportation, please call the school and exercise your parent “bus note.” We provide up to six of these per year and in addition to these, we will work with you if your child’s absence is due to transportation. If you have questions, please call your school. Again, thanks for your patience. Matt Hixson
Hawkins County Schools will be on a regular schedule tomorrow. Please access the updated bus route link at: HCK12.net/buses. Again, if your access roads are not safe for travel, please be in communication with your student’s school site.
Parents, we understand that those of you who reside on streets and roadways that have yet to be cleared of snow and ice may not be able to get your children to school today or even over the next few days. However, we have an obligation to open schools when a majority of our students can safely get to and from our schools. We are at this point. Please work with your school to keep them informed of your situation. I have advised all schools to work with parents and students in these situations.
This goes without saying, but if it is unsafe for a bus to travel down your road, please do not send your students of driving age down the same roads. If unsafe to go to school, please do not attempt the trip. Once the roads are safe, we will resume as many bus routes as possible, as quickly as possible.
