Parking Lot
Be mindful of the children walking through the schoolyard to come into school in the morning. In the morning the children are assuming it is safe to walk through their schoolyard. There was a near miss with a distracted driver. Please remember the rules of the road apply to our schoolyard. Please do not use your cell phone etc. in the schoolyard. The safety of all children is our utmost concern.
