🚍 Daily Shuttle Bus Service 🚍
Did you know? We offer shuttle buses every day to help middle school and high school students get to and from the secondary site!
Please be ready at your stop by the following times if your student needs a ride:
• Barryton Elementary – 7:35 AM
• Mecosta Elementary – 7:35 AM

Shuttles run from each elementary school to the Middle School/High School in the morning and return students back to the elementary sites right after school each day.
⏰ Warriors—please arrive on time! The shuttles must leave promptly to keep everyone on schedule—especially once winter weather arrives.

Show your school spirit every Friday! Wear your Warriors gear or school colors and celebrate being part of our amazing Chippewa Hills community.
