NOTE FROM MRS. BELL
8/29/2011 3:05 PM

WHEN STUDENT PICK-UP OR BUSING PLANS CHANGE AT THE END OF THE DAY

Anytime a child’s end of day plans change you will need to notify their teacher of the change.  We will not allow any child to deviate from their regular going home route without a note giving your permission.  Often times a child will inform the teacher at the end of the day that they are “being picked up today”.  There is not time to verify if this is correct so teachers often call the office to check.  Beginning at 3:00 the office gets very busy with parents, phone calls, etc. so there is no free time for secretaries to verify the child’s plans.

Thank you for assisting us by making sure that your child’s teacher is aware of any changes in their after school routine by keeping them informed.

Weather Related Closing and/or Delay Information
12/15/2011 12:08:34 PM
The Hastings Public Schools website is the fastest and most accurate way to simply find out if the district has closed or delayed their start time.  This is the first place where this information will appear once a determination has been made.   

By checking the web you can avoid  missing our school district listing while watching the television scroll  or having to flip through channels because you see Hastings Public Schools listed on one channel but not on another. 

In addition, the School District will continue, as always, to have our closing information announced on KDWA Radio, 1460 AM and Channels 4,5,9 and 11.
