🚸 Arrival & Dismissal Safety Reminder 🚸
At New Central Elementary School, the safety of our students, families, and staff is priority. We are asking that all pedestrians use the designated crosswalk during arrival and dismissal.
Using the crosswalk not only improves safety for adults and students, but it also helps us model safe habits for our children. When students see adults using crosswalks consistently, they are more likely to do so themselves.
Thank you for your cooperation, understanding, and continued partnership in keeping our school community safe. 💛🦆

2 big shoutouts to Liam Miller and Liam Lasceles for cleaning up a mess around the restroom and helping another student clean the mess in the cafeteria! Go Ducks!!
