Students scheduled for bus dismissal will be on their bus. To ensure safety of all students, we will not be modifying dismissal procedures at this time. When buses have completed loading we will notify parents for pickup.
GHS will begin bus dismissal shortly. As soon as the buses have been released, we will begin an orderly dismissal of students to parents. Please do not come to campus until you receive further instructions.
Students are doing well, and all are safe. Please do not come to campus and let directed to do so. We are working to facilitate a smooth and safe dismissal for all students. Ledyard Public Schools Staff, police and fire are all working to ensure student safety.
