Many of you have seen the District's buses and fleet parked at the Jr/Sr HS beginning on Monday morning. This is due to our departure from the Bus Garage the district has been using along Highway 7. On Friday evening after a review of facilities assessment of the site the District was informed that they need to begin exiting the building and no longer use it due to the hazardous conditions the building has for the safety of our staff. Moving forward the District will seek out solutions for parking, maintenance, and office areas for our Transportation staff. Current parking will be at the Jr/Sr HS and George Harbaugh will be using an office at the Jr/Sr HS for the immediate future. We will be looking for a site to allow for maintenance of our buses and fleet moving forward until a permanent solution is determined.
