Traffic & School Zone Safety




Drivers: Please remember to be cautious in school zones, follow posted speed limits, and stay off of your cell phone. Not only is it against the law, but it puts our student's safety at risk. More specifically, the morning sun on Fitzgerald St. is particularly blinding and parts of Fitzgerald continue with heavy pedestrian traffic throughout the day. We appreciate your caution and thank you for helping us keep your kids safe!
