Dear Parents:

On Monday, October 15, Berlin Middle School and Berlin High School will be implementing some minor changes to our daily schedule. These adjustments will allow the district to more efficiently transport our elementary students home from school following dismissal each day. A detailed schedule with the changes included is provided with this mailing. Please note some important points below:

· Middle and High School students will be dismissed at 2:05 PM each day. Students with a period 10 class will be dismissed at 2:50 PM.

· Classes will begin for all students at 7:16 AM each day (formerly 7:19). There will be a warning bell at 7:13 AM informing students that they have three minutes to get to their first period class.

· Morning pick up times for students taking the bus will not change. Continuing with current practice, busses will release students at 7:10 AM to enter the building. If a student is participating in the breakfast program he or she may enter the cafeteria at 7:00 AM

Thank you for your understanding in this matter. If you have any questions or concerns, please call Ed Kilmartin or Fran DelSignore at 658-2515.

Sincerely,

Mr. Edward Kilmartin

Middle School Principal

Ms. Frances DelSignore

High School Principal
