First Day Letter from Principal

Dear Mayo Families:

Well, it was a pretty uneventful day.  Fun, but uneventful.  I hope your children are sharing great stories with you about their first day back.  We had a meeting after school and had some good laughs about some of the things that happened.

There are a few things I need to ask from you.  First, if you park in the church parking lot, please be respectful of their private property and avoid parking in the circle drive.  We are extremely fortunate that they allow us to utilize their parking lot.  They don't have to.  I would hate for them to put up gates to keep us out.

Also, we had several students today who told us that they are riding the bus.  But, we had no paperwork and no communication from an adult.  We will not put children on the bus, or keep children off of the bus, unless we hear from an adult.  We also had some students who were supposed to ride the bus, but parents picked them up and didn't notify the office.  These issues held up the buses for an extended time.  Since the end of the day is so busy, please try to call before noon to make us aware of any changes in travel plans.

The first several days of school are always crazy as we try to teach and reinforce procedures to students.  Your help is appreciated.  Our sole purpose for having procedure is to keep your children safe.

Thank you.  I'm sure most of your children will be asleep early tonight.  I hope you enjoy your evening with them.

-Mr. Joslin
