Due to Career on Wheels tomorrow Wednesday, May 14, the SAC Parking Lot will be closed at 7:30 AM and all vehicles will need to be removed from the SAC Parking Lot and removed from the gravel across from the SAC Parking Lot on Thorp Street by 7:30 AM.
Thorp Street will be blocked off at Main Street and Lawrence Street will be blocked off at Coble Street until past the MES circle drive beginning at 8:00 AM. Therefore, students dropped off for school after 8:00 will need to be dropped off in the back.
If you are needing to visit MES between 8:00 and 11:15 AM, you will need to park on Lawrence Street in front of the barricades and walk up the sidewalk to the front doors. The circle drive will also be closed during this time.
We are sorry for any inconvenience but we want to make sure that all of our students are safe as vehicles are coming in for Career on Wheels and as our students are travelling to different stations. Thank you!
