REMINDER: There will be a temporary traffic change near our campus this week due to construction.
On Monday and Tuesday, November 17–18, the construction team working on the adjacent recreation center will dig a 13-foot hole near Basset Creek Drive. For safety and to keep walkways secure for students, Basset Creek Drive will be reduced to one lane during this time.
All vehicles exiting Pride Elementary must turn right out of the parking lot. To return to Kinnan Street, please follow the attached detour route.


The scheduled construction in front of the new Recreation Center has been postponed and will now begin on Monday. Thank you for being prepared to reroute this morning. Please be ready to use the adjusted route starting Monday.
We will keep the route posted in the Lion’s Roar and on the school website for your reference.
Thank you again for your patience and flexibility with this fluid situation.


REMINDER: One way traffic on Basset Creek Wednesday and Thursday- Refer to map for special directions about traffic patterns during this time. Thanks in advance for your patience!
