Good, breezy afternoon! I wanted to remind parents that if your student needs to ride the Stapleton bus after sports practice to North Platte, jr. high or high school, that MCS needs to be contacted in advance, by 8:00 a.m., so we can let Stapleton know. This is for non-regular riders. If your child rides regularly, then we have that list. Stapleton's North Platte after school bus is pretty full and can only accommodate a few extra riders. Thank you for your cooperation.
