This is a Bison Herd Alert From Vicki Bombard, Principal regarding The New Parent Drop Off Policy. Effective Immediately: Due to increased traffic and safety concerns, parents will be prohibited from using the Barrackville Church of Christ parking lot in the morning for arrivals. Parents must utilize the drop off loop in the Barrackville Methodist Church. There will be additional staff, including two aides to help with Pre-K and Kindergarten students exiting the vehicles. This change is necessary after two students were nearly hit this morning in the parking lot. Walkers that come from that direction need to use extreme caution when crossing the upper lot. If parents insist upon walking their students to building, they must park in the Bethesda Baptist Church lot and use the front cross walk where the crossing guard is located. Our top priority at Barrackville is student safety. If this problem persists, the church lots will be closed to school traffic before and after school as they are private property.
