Our first day of school is Thursday, August 8th, and we have made some changes to the pick up and drop off routes that will provide a safer environment for students and staff during these busy times. You will not be able to access 4th Street or 5th Street from Main Street during school hours . To get to 4th Street for Elementary walk up, you will need to use Trinity Street to access 4th. For parents who use the car drop off and pick up, you will have to turn left on 4th street once you exit the drop off/pick up lane.
For junior high drop off and pick up, you will enter 5th street the the south end. 5th Street will now be a one-way street headed north during school hours. Please see the attached maps that illustrate the changes.
Thank you for your patience as we make adjustments to keep everyone safe at all times.
