The student entrance area by the football field house and stadium will become a one way exit with two lanes exiting from the four way stop down to the entrance onto Summerfield Drive. All students will be expected  to exit this direction. No students will be allowed to exit out the front entrance and no one will be allowed into campus via the football gate from 3 – 3:30 pm as this will be a one way exit only.  Parents must exit the front gate as well. No parent will be allowed to exit via the student exit. Again, this is only in the afternoon.

We appreciate your cooperation in this matter.
