Community Safety Traffic Meeting Follow Up

Special thanks to those who attended the traffic safety meeting on November 17. Members of the school and neighborhood community were in attendance. The meeting offered the opportunity to share concerns and ideas for how to handle traffic around Highlands Elementary. The district and county will take these ideas and see which ones are feasible per regulations.
 
The next meeting will take place in January.
 
If you were not able to attend the meeting but would like updates or to share your own ideas or concerns, please reach out to the Highlands Elementary office.
