Starting Tuesday, September 16th, Douglas Primary School will have a new daily release time based on community feedback and what we believe is in the best interest of our students. The release time will be 35 minutes earlier each day. On Monday–Thursday, students will be released at 2:50 PM (instead of 3:25 PM). On Fridays, students will be released at 12:50 PM (instead of 1:25 PM). This change allows students to get home at an earlier time.
This adjustment means the DPS students will now ride their bus separately from all other bus routes. Special Note: If the student needs to wait for a bus with an older sibling or an out-of-town bus, they will remain at DPS and be picked up by those buses at 3:45 PM. Supervision will be provided for the students.
Please remember: the Transportation Department will only release DPS students if an adult is at the bus stop to pick them up. The new bus transportation times will be shared with families.
If you have questions about your child’s bus stop, don't hesitate to contact the Transportation Department at (307) 358-4543. Thank you for your understanding and partnership as we make this adjustment for the benefit of our students.
