Afternoon Car Dismissal Information
You will notice the new traffic pattern has cars circling our side parking lot. This will begin when cars waiting in line reach our main entrance. At that point, cars will need to turn in and round the parking lot. When the drive fills with cars, everyone will wait along the road as normal. Once cars begin to move, the cars waiting in the side parking lot will empty first, and then the ones on the road will follow. After this point, our line move as usual.
We will have staff out in front of the school for at least a week to ensure everyone understands the new traffic pattern.
Congratulations to our District Level Winners for Young Georgia Authors!
