Changes to Traffic Patterns for Morning Drop-offs
This week, parents who drop off students in the morning will have noticed some new signage and traffic cones designed to improve traffic safety during the morning rush. With the increase in school size, the corresponding increase in morning bus and car traffic was creating some safety concerns as parents tried to merge with buses to accesss the drop-off area at the front of the school. To best ensure student safety, changes have been made to the morning traffic patterns. As per the new signage, parents are requested to drop students off in the parking lot then exit the school while staying on the left side of the roadway. Buses will stay to the right side and be the only vehicles with morning access to the drop-off area immediately in front of the school. We appreciate your cooperation in adapting to this change.
