This year, morning commuters will see crossing guards at four crosswalks near campus to assist an increasing number of walkers. Please stay alert for their signals of students crossing the road.

Crossing guards will be posted at crosswalks AM & PM, administrators will be assisting with students exiting vehicles, and afternoon car riders may begin picking up students at 3:15 at the elementary cafeteria, facilitated by administrators with radios. (**Parents: stay in cars in the pick-up line, show driver's license to admin, say student's name to exit building) Questions? Call the elementary office at 674-3211.
