Use extra caution tomorrow morning, April 29, when dropping students off in front of the school.
The drop-off lane will be closed to allow a crane to place columns and trusses for the building addition. This change is weather dependent.
Vehicles will need to use the parking lot for drop-offs. Please drive slowly and be observant for pedestrians. Pedestrians should cross in areas with good visibility and be observant of vehicles. Thank you!
