Washington families,
The City of Marietta Water Treatment and Distribution Department has informed us that this week they will be replacing a water line under Fourth Street between Warren and Washington. At this time, this means no parent pickup or drop off will be available on the Fourth Street Side of our building on Wednesday or Thursday.
If you walk or drive your child to school on those days, you will need to drop off your child at the Fifth Street Entrance to our playground. We will have staff there to greet your child.
Please remember to not park or drop off your child on Washington Street where our buses drop off students.
The city does not anticipate any interruptions to our water service during their work.
Thank you for your patience.
