Community Members Walking On School Grounds Community Members Walking On School Grounds

Sometimes individuals from the community cut across our field or parking lots rather than walking around the building using the public sidewalks. We are always vigilant about individuals walking on or near our school grounds. If someone crosses onto our grounds during the school day, we address them and explain that they should use public areas such as the sidewalk and open pathways, to traverse the community.
