🚍 **Dear OCSU Families** — This summer, our principals have been working with Butler’s Bus Service to create a transportation plan that is safe, efficient, and fair for all students.

We know no plan is perfect, but your input will help us start strong on the first day of school! Please take a few minutes to fill out our short survey. If you have students in more than one school, you can fill it out more than once.

📄 Need a paper copy? Contact your school office.

**Survey Link:** survey link (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd5OblL4lWygxoZbzyXb0zcwuLszGpTFdfv1AWBIN89zVPJwQ/viewform)


Thank you for your support!
