Safety Reminder for Main Campus Carpool

Please be mindful of your speed on the main campus, especially during our busiest times with carpools. Teachers and families are walking through all the parking lots almost all day, and there have been some close calls. 

If you are coming down the hill in the back of the building from the blacktop/3rd-grade cottage area, please pay very close attention to cars parked at the bottom of the hill and teachers crossing through the parking lot.
