A Reminder of the New School Hours Based on Tier System

School hours have changed for Oswego kindergartens and elementary schools.

Editor's Note: The previous release stated times only for Homestead; it has now been corrected for all times for Oswego schools.

School begins in Oswego 308 next week and there have been some changes to the school hours for kindergarten and elementary schools.

The buses will be running on a tiered, or staggered, system to help with transportation cuts.
