Important Message Regarding Traffic Flow Pattern Changes

Posted Date: 11/25/25 (05:45 PM)



With a recommendation from the Center for School Safety, and in an effort to keep our students and campus safe, we will be implementing a new afternoon pick up traffic flow system in front of the elementary school. For those who pick up students in front of the elementary school will only have one lane available. Traffic cones will be set up for one lane. We will have one lane open closest to the sidewalk. Please stay in this lane all the way down Hickory Street to the stop sign. If you are picking up middle or high school students after picking up elementary, please turn right onto Panther Way to pick them up. 

 

For those that park in the church parking lot will need to exit the parking lot at the far end closest to the Board Office turning right on Eli Street heading toward Arcadia Ave. 

 

Parents and Guardians walking with students please us the sidewalk when returning to your vehicle or to the parking lot at the church. Please use the crosswalk at the four way stop on Eli and Hickory Street. (New cross walks will be in place at the four way). We will also have a cross walk from the gym parking lot to the FRYSC doors for students and parents/guardians to use. 

 

Middle and High School car riders should be picked up in front of the High School. Please enter from S. Paker St., right onto Hickory St., and then left onto Panther Way. You will exit Panther Way, left onto Eli St. and then right onto Railroad St. 

 

Middle and High School students that walk to and from school should use the sidewalks and cross walks. 

 

We will begin this process when we return from Thanksgiving Break.

Just a reminder, Panthers—we will begin this traffic pattern TOMORROW.
