Construction Update
Next week they'll be replacing a sewer line that runs across the construction site from 2nd to 3rd Avenues. Here is the impact as it relates to our school:
- The 6th grade wing is attached to this line; as such, we will need to shut down the water to only that wing during this process. We're hopeful that it will only be Wednesday-Friday. Students will still have access to the other two sets of bathrooms and water fountains throughout the remainder of the building for those days.
- The pathway from the lot to the school along the construction fencing will be blocked, and the sidewalk along 3rd Avenue will be moved a little. Please use the 3rd avenue sidewalk to access the school.
Pick-up and Parking
Please remember that with the limited space, we're asking that parents park in the A Field Lot or on surrounding streets when coming to the school. Also, the near parking lot can no longer be used for pick-up, as waiting for students creates gridlock and a safety concern, and blocks in parked cars without room for flexibility. Please pick-up in the A Field lot, on Second or Fourth Avenues, or work out another location that is convenient for you. We have bike racks in front of the school and excellent crossing guards both in front of the school and at Mill Street and Third Avenue.

PSO Information
We are a box tops school. Please trim your tops and send them in. Each team competes against one another to win prizes over the course of the year. The entire 6th grade won the most recent round! Orange boxes labeled for each team are on the drop-off table. If you shop at ShopRite, you can also sign up online to support the Middle School!
