FROM THE CROSSING GUARDS
A big THANK YOU to all the parents for their courteous driving this morning!! As they battled signs, oversized rain gear, icy rain blowing sideways, and jumped and often landed in large rivers of water, they really appreciated everyone driving slowly and anticipating the stop sign!
