UPDATE - Weather Related Shelter-in-Place

UPDATE - 5.18.2026 - 3:15PM
We are releasing buses to begin the afternoon trips home at approximately 3:15 pm.  We experienced strong winds, pea sized hail and heavy rain.  We hope everyone sheltered safely through the storm.

Based upon radar reviews, we believe the immediate danger has passed and we want to get students home prior to any potential for flash flooding.

We have had reports of downed power lines so we will be watching on our bus routes. Please stay tuned in to your phone in case an alternate drop off needs to be arranged for your child. You  may hear from the dispatcher or your bus driver. 

When we have the all clear, doors will be opened for dismissal. 

Thank you for your patience, 
Katherine Bertolini

Dear Parents,

We will be sheltering in place due to a Severe thunderstorm warning that will expire at 3PM.  The alert is notifying us of 80 mile per hour winds and flying debris. We have also heard of a potential touchdown of a tornado in Wayland.

Our transportation will be delayed at least 30 minutes due to the tornado shelter in place.  We will send out another notice when all buses have left the buildings.

Thank you for your attention to this severe weather notice.

We will send out another notice soon,
Katherine Bertolini
