GES News

The new traffic light at the entrance and exit of our school is now fully functional! Officer Barrett has been working alongside city traffic engineers to ensure that the light is working smoothly. As we become accustomed to this new resource, there may be a few inconvenient moments. We appreciate your patience.

Please note the following important information:

• School starts at 7:45am.
• Students may arrive and enter the building as early as 7:10am.
• Students should be in the building no later than 7:45am.
• Cars in the parking lot at or after 7:45am will be diverted to the front of the school and parents will be asked to sign students in for attendance. Students are considered tardy at that point.
• The start of the day will be delayed only on days when traffic is slowed due to weather, accidents, and other unforeseen issues. The decision to hold attendance and allow students to arrive after 7:45am without penalty will be made by school administration.

Also,

• Please do not text and drive on or around our school campus.
• Drive with extreme caution on school grounds.

As always, we appreciate your patience and consideration for safety on our school campus.

Please read these dates carefully and mark your calendars!
