Hello Parents/Guardians of MES,
On Monday, September 25th, our students that ride a bus will be doing their bus evacuations at MES for all K-6 graders. Students will be on a normal schedule, but once the buses arrive at MES, they will be practicing with their bus drivers procedures for the bus in case of an emergency.
This will impact the traffic pattern at MES ONLY in the morning on Monday, September 25th. The buses will pull in front of the track area (where cars usually pull up in the morning) to do their drills. Car riders will drop off in front of the gym area for ONLY this morning. It is very important to follow the directions of the crossing guards as the traffic pattern will look differently.
Thank you so much for your help and patience with this!
