Transportation Change - Afternoon Transfer Hub - IMS

We are continuing to adjust our transportation schedules to ensure students are safely transported to and from school. Next week, our Isanti afternoon (PM) transfer hub will move from the Isanti Intermediate School to Isanti Middle School to provide better supervision for students who are transferring.

Isanti afternoon (PM) Transfer Hub: Isanti Middle School

This change will have two significant effects on IMS students, families, and staff.

Afternoon Pick-up
Length of School Day

Afternoon Pick-up

This change WILL mean MORE buses will be coming to our school during afternoon pick up time. For families who drive, please allow a few extra minutes for your pick up and YIELD to buses entering and exiting our drive. We appreciate everyone’s cooperation as we make these important changes.

While changes like this are always a challenge, I want to take a moment to point out the opportunity this challenge gives us here at IMS.

Gift of Time: An additional 20 minutes on our school day will give our staff more time to connect with and support our students.
No Middle School Students Transfer: The transfer route will be removed for all of our middle schoolers. Having had the opportunity to ride with our students on a transfer bus to IIS, please believe me when I tell you removing the transfer bus for middle schoolers is a GOOD thing.
