RECESS DRESS REMINDERS
As we approach cooler temperatures. please make sure that your student is wearing a coat everyday to school. Once the snow starts falling, students will need coats, snow pants, boots, hats and mittens for recess. Please make sure all items are labeled. If students do not have boots or snow pants, they have to stay on the sidewalk during recess time. We go out each and every day if it is not raining and the “real-feel” temperature is 8 degrees or higher. If you are in need of any winter snow clothes for your child, reach out to the Torrey Hill office.
Ryder the Therapy Dog is Here!
Ryder the therapy dog is now at Torrey Hill! We would like to thank the Lake Fenton Foundation and the community for your generous donations to provide a therapy dog for each of the buildings in the district. Our very own Mrs. Ramoie will be Ryder's main handler and "mom". Ryder will be making his way to your child's classroom in the coming days.

FIRST VIEW BUS TRACKING
Change In End Of Day Pick Up
Any bus changes must be approved by the principal at least 24 hours in advance. Students are not allowed to take alternative buses home unless their is an emergency situation. Please do not use bus transportation as a means of transporting friends for after school social or extracurricular events. Our buses have capacity limits and we cannot add students to bus routes. We care about the safety of our students and therefore must closely monitor ridership on our school buses.
Traffic Safety
We realize the morning and afternoon can be busy times in our parking lots at West Shore and Torrey Hill. Please help with traffic concerns by avoiding crossing over the incoming lane (AM) and outgoing lane (PM) at West Shore (Lahring entrance).
Also, if you enter Torrey Hill from Torrey Rd., please remember you can only turn right at the flagpole. Some are turning left where the sign, "No Left Turn", is located. Thank you for your support.
