Dear Families,
We’re pleased to share that buses 777 and 156 have been cleared for departure, and students are headed home.
We appreciate your patience and understanding as Anne Arundel County Police and the Transportation Department ensured everyone’s safety.
If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact the school at 410-424-2400.
Yours in Partnership,
Shakiyla Shockley, Assistant Principal

Good afternoon Families,
We want to inform you that students who ride bus 777 or bus 156 are currently still at school due to a bus accident that occurred this afternoon.
Anne Arundel County Police and the Transportation Department are on-site and actively conducting an investigation. Please be assured that no students were harmed and all students are safe.
As soon as the buses are cleared for departure, they will proceed with transporting students home.
If you prefer to pick your child up from school, you are welcome to do so. Please bring a valid photo ID, and ensure that the adult picking up the student is listed on the student's emergency contact form. Come into the office and the front office staff will release your student to you.
Thank you for your understanding and support.
Assistant Principal,
Shakiyla Shockley
