SSISD NEWS RELEASE, August 2, 2014 – Heavy Traffic

SSISD would like to remind the community to be aware of heavy traffic around all school areas starting on Tuesday, August 26th. This is the first day back to school for students and as usual we anticipate it will take a few days for everyone to get use to drop off and pick up procedures.

Make sure you look for children crossing the roadways and parking lots and vehicles slowing down in school zone areas. Also be aware of buses dropping off and picking up students. SSES has added a school zone on League Street that has a reduction in speed during pick up and drop off hours.

There will be SSISD police officers and additional city police officers directing the traffic to help ease the congestion. The heaviest traffic areas seem to be SSMS and ECLC during that first week of school. Please pay attention to the officers and staff that are directing traffic and assisting in drop off and pick up procedures.

Below is the start and end times for each campus. Expect heavy traffic in these school areas a few minutes before and after these times. Remember the safety of our students is our main concern. Please help us in this effort.
