Hello Parkview Elementary and Dillon Middle School Parents/Guardians, this is Mr. Fitzgerald and Mr. Rogers sending out back to school information as we inch closer to the start of the school year. Parents/guardians must fill out our New and Returning Student Consent Form for each child that will go to school in the district. Also, if your child(ren) need transportation this year, parents/guardians must fill out a Bus Transportation Form for each rider.This transportation form closes at midnight on August 20th and will NOT open again until after school has started therefore your child(ren) will not be able to ride the bus on the first day of school if you miss this transportation deadline.
