Our Community
Welcome to The Bush School Neighbors Page!
We appreciate your visiting the Neighbors Page, where you will find information on our current events and transportation initiatives. We want to keep you apprised of events and activities on campus as well as inform you of our transportation initiatives, which are aimed at reducing the impact resulting from the operation of a school in a residential community. We have also linked a variety of resources below and are always happy to answer any questions. Please feel free to reach out to Chief Finance and Operations Officer Rather Stanton directly or plan to attend a quarterly Neighbors meeting via Zoom (schedule linked below).
The Bush School strives to be a good neighbor and provide a framework for clear and timely communication so that any issues of mutual interest and concern to the school and its neighbors can be resolved effectively and efficiently.
