"Hello Families and Students, We hope this message finds you safe and well. At Bret Harte Union High School District, we take considerable pride in our school and services to our students and community. Unfortunately, we are currently experiencing a severe bus driver shortage that will likely impact student transportation. Due to the shortage of drivers, we may need to cancel routes and bus services, including transportation to and from school, as well as transportation for our athletic teams. While school transportation by the district is not a requirement under California State Law, we will continue to do all we can to transport students to and from school. We understand the inconvenience and burden that this may place upon you and your family. We strongly suggest, speaking with friends and neighbors to develop a backup transportation plan in case routes are canceled. If a route does need to be canceled, we will make every attempt to notify you as early as possible. We will continue to advertise, search for, and hire qualified drivers. If you know of anyone who may be interested in being a school bus driver, have them visit our website brethartebullfrogs.org, and then go to employment. - Thank you, Bret Harte Union High School District" Sent via IC Messenger 9/5/23 3:00 PM
