Message from Mrs. Niebuhr – Construction to begin this week!
After several years of fund raising, permitting, planning, surveying, bidding, negotiations, etc. we are ready to begin! The new administration building will provide a safe, secure, single point of entry, reception area, offices for school staff, a clinic, conference room and most importantly, valuable classroom space for our students will be freed up!!
Temporary fencing around the construction area and faculty/student walk areas will be installed on Tuesday, February 6th with the work beginning the following day. During construction, morning drop off and afternoon dismissal procedures are being changed. Starting Monday, February 5th, new procedures for morning drop off and afternoon dismissal will go into effect. [download the drop-off/dismissal procedures here]
Please see details and maps attached of the new drop off and dismissal routes. [download the maps here] Please review the instructions carefully and read to the end as there are notes which you may find helpful. Should you have any questions, please reach out to your child’s teacher or the school office. We appreciate your partnership and assistance as we continue moving forward at Seton!
