Lots of visits happening in the College and Career Center! Check out the schedule for next week!
Work begins on our new security vestibule!
Please note the following temporary minor adjustments to our morning drop-off procedures due to construction of our new Security Vestibule Entrance. Please take careful note of the following and plan ahead accordingly for any adjustments you may need to make.
1. Work will begin on Wednesday October 9 (No-school in observance of Yom Kippur). On Thursday October 10 and Friday October 11, due to the anticipated volume, students are strongly encouraged to take the bus on those days or be dropped off on the 10/202 side instead.
2. Parents who need to drop off from 189 (and who usually do so in the GMHS main entrance circle) will be instead re-routed up the hill behind the tennis courts for students to enter through the upper rotunda.
3. Parents who need to use the 189 entrance to drop students at the back of the middle school will still be able to do so, but are again encouraged to use the 10/202 side.
4. In the event parents or visitors need to enter the building, they will park in the visitor spaces and enter the Community Gym Doors.
5. Seniors with parking privileges will still be able to park in their regular spots and will enter the Community Gym entrance.
6. Students and staff who park in the circle can still do so, but will enter through the Community Gym entrance.
7. At the end of the day, parents picking up students will again be asked to re-route up the hill behind the tennis courts, and any athletic buses will pick up students at the back of the math/world language wing and on the GMMS lot side.
8. In any event of an emergency evacuation, the main entrance doors will still be accessible for egress.
Thank you very much for your patience and cooperation!
