DANGER IN CARPOOL
DO NOT DROP YOUR CHILDREN OFF IN THE STREET 
 
With the end of school in sight, we must not lose sight of the importance of safety in our carpool areas.  Just this morning, a parent reported that children were crossing through the front driveway from the street.  The parent felt she came dangerously close to striking them with her car because she was not expecting children to be coming from the left side of her car. 
 
Please re-read the carpool guidelines from the lower school or middle school handbook.  Both handbooks may be found on the school website on the parents' page.

 TOTAL CLOSURE OF I-10/KATY FREEWAY AT SH-6 

 April 18-21
"West Houston Drivers Should Expect Delays"

 
Beginning 10:00 P.M., Friday, April 18 until 5:00 A.M., Monday, April 21, Texas Department of Transportation contractor, Williams Brothers, will close the I-10/Katy Freeway eastbound and westbound mainlanes between Dairy Ashford and Park Ten. This closure is required for the placing of bridge beams for the new SH-6 overpass bridge.  Law enforcement will be stationed at key locations to facilitate the movement of traffic in the area.  However, due to the complexity of the work to be performed and the broad work area required, drivers are strongly encouraged to use alternate travel routes to avoid delays where feasible.
