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.
