Due to a continued bus driver shortage, ALL students who normally ride bus 207 will be riding a DIFFERENT bus for this afternoon and tomorrow afternoon. This will impact all bus drop-off times for 212, 215, 219, and 241. Please be patient with drop-off times, due to this change from the TCPS Transportation Dept. Thank you!
