Important Information

Emergency Weather Procedures

Severe weather or other emergencies occasionally make it necessary to cancel or suspend school. In the case of a predictable event, like snow and ice, the superintendent tries to make the decision to close school before 5:30 a.m. When classes are postponed or cancelled, parents will first be alerted by a Bayless E-News updated, followed by an automated phone message and an alert through Parent Square. Register for Bayless E-News at bayless.k12.org and you will be among the first to hear about cancellations! School closings will also be broadcast on Fox 2 KTVI, KMOV 4, KSDK 5, KPLR 11 and KMOX 1120 AM Radio. If school is cancelled, all school and district related events are also cancelled that day.

Student Transportation

The Bayless School District currently contracts with First Student Inc. to provide transportation services for students residing in the district. Students who attend Bayless through the VICC transfer program receive transportation services through Missouri Central. All resident students are eligible to ride a bus, with the closest resident bus stops beginning one half-mile from the school. Bus routes and stop will be available in all school offices and on BSD’s district website after August 1. If you have questions regarding transportation, please contact Mrs. Debbie Meyer-Higgins or Mrs. Kari Wolford, Transportation Supervisors, at 314-2568602 or 314-256-8601. Please visit the Parents Section at bayless.k12.org for transportation rules, policies and procedures.
