For the Safety of Our Students---Do Not Park at Family Dollar!
Students will not be allowed to walk across the street to Family Dollar. The store is also asking that we not use their parking lot, as it prevents parking for their customers. Please help us by using Hodde street to pick up students. Even with construction, we are clear after 10 minutes.
