📣39th Harvest for the Hungry: Kids Helping Kids Fundraising Campaign, October 1-31, 2026
AACPS & AA County Food Bank partner to hold the largest annual fundraiser for the food bank! 100% of proceeds benefit the AA County Food Bank
Donate online at aacps.org/harvest or bring in canned/dried goods to your school
AACPS autogenerates electronic postcards to send to families. The intent is to ensure families are aware of their child’s attendance and the impact on learning. The number of absences include any type of absence, whether excused (such as a note sent in for an illness) or unexcused (no note/approved reason). Please see the sample attached. Another message is scheduled to be sent next week. If you have any questions, please reach out to your child’s teacher. Thank you for your partnership.

Morning Procedures
-Pull your vehicle all the way forward before stopping. Do not let students exit the vehicle before reaching the designated unloading area.
-Drivers must remain in their vehicles at all times. Staff supervision begins at 7:40 AM.
-Students exit promptly once the vehicle has stopped. If able, students should open and close their own door.
-If your child needs assistance, notify a staff member. Pull forward to the straight curb by the kindergarten exit doors.

Afternoon Procedures
-Form a line in the car rider loop and remain in your vehicle.
-Display your GBPE Car Rider Tag on your mirror/dashboard.
-Keep your tag displayed until you have picked up your child. This helps staff identify the correct car before loading.
-If you do not have your tag, you will be asked to park and show identification in the school office.
-Pull your vehicle all the way forward before stopping. This allows us to load multiple cars at the same time.
-Students will move to a numbered spot on the sidewalk. Please pull up to meet them.
-Students should enter vehicles from the passenger side. Students should not cross into the parking lot without an adult.
-If your child needs assistance, notify a staff member. Pull forward to the straight curb by the kindergarten exit doors.

Good Morning Families,
Thank you for your patience with the few bus issues we’ve had recently. Many of our drivers are new to our school this year and adjusting to routes. Our students have been patient and understanding as well!
At this time, we’ve been informed that Bus 142 has a consistent driver and Bus 158 driver will be returning this week so delays should be minimal.
We recommend that all families of bus riders enroll in the Bus Alert system on aacps.org so you will receive messages if your child’s bus is late. This will provide you information about the bus time/route in real time.
Again, thank you for your patience as we work to ensure our students are brought to and from school safely and on time!
