If you have passed by the school over the past few weeks, you may have noticed a lot of dirt and activity. Multiple trenches are currently being dug for water and sewer lines, both in front of and behind the school. At this time, the trench across the lane directly in front of the school will not be fully closed before tomorrow.
To ensure student and staff safety while maintaining school operations, we will be implementing a temporary revised traffic pattern.
Temporary Traffic Plan (Drop-Off & Pick-Up)
Traffic will be rerouted to avoid the trench area (see diagram below).
- The existing queuing lanes will remain, but they will merge and enter the parking lot from the opposite direction, temporarily reversing the one-way traffic flow (shown by green lines).
- Once inside the lot, traffic will operate with:
- One lane for student drop-off/pick-up
- One lane for passing and exiting
- This configuration mirrors our current front-of-school drop-off system and allows traffic to continue moving safely.
To support this plan:
- Cones will be placed (shown by the orange line on the diagram) to ensure all incoming traffic is directed into the drop-off lanes.
- If handicap-accessible parking is needed, families will be directed to:
- Use the east entrance by Door A
- Park along the east side of the building
- Loop around to exit safely (blue line
Parking Reminders
There continues to be no on-campus parking available for parents at this time.
Please continue to use the parking lots across the street and follow all posted signage and staff directions to help keep traffic flowing safely.
Looking Ahead
Once the work in front of the school is completed next week, we do not anticipate any additional construction in front of the building that would impact daily operations.
As we move through this phase, we kindly ask families to allow extra time for drop-off and pick-up, as traffic may move more slowly than usual.
Please note that this is a fluid situation, and we are working closely with our contractors to monitor progress daily. Continue to check your email for updates.
Thank you for your patience, flexibility, and continued partnership.
