The middle and high school students will be released an hour early Monday so that the district’s two-tier bus system has enough time to finish the routes and pick up the elementary students at their regular dismissal time.

There are also a few program cancellations including P.M. kindergarten, P.M. ECE, and the after school Sockeye Daycare.

Most of the bus routes will be the same with a few exceptions. Families on the changed routes will receive an auto-dial phone call. Check online for the new drop-off areas.

Winter weather route changes include:

· Tiger Mountain

· Mirrormont

· High Valley

· Licorice Fern

· China Creek (Newcastle area)

· 132nd off of Issaquah Hobart Road

· 55th Loop off Cougar Mountain

· Roller Coaster, Southeast 60th Street on Cougar Mountain

· Squak Mountain (downtown Issaquah)

· Forest Drive off of Cougar Mountain
