Update on Oates Drive/WRM Exit Driveway Construction
April 9, 2023 at 2:15 p.m.
Hello everyone~
Construction on our exit driveway has still not happened. We were told it was rescheduled for Saturday, but that did not occur. This means we will continue with the car line procedure we used last week (turning left into the main parking lot) for all levels of the school. Should we need to institute our alternative car line plan, we will send a text message around 7:00 a.m. for morning carline or 2:00 p.m. for afternoon car line to update you.
As a reminder, there are some great options for walking to pick up/drop off your student if you would prefer to avoid traffic flow in the main parking lot:
- park on Heatherwood, walk across Oates Dr along the exit side of the driveway to the main entrance; please wait by the Toddler Drop Off area to connect with your child
- park on Beechmont to the south of Oates Dr, walk across Oates Dr and follow the path by the Sport Court to the main entrance; you will be directed to wait by the Toddler Drop Off area to connect with your child
- park on Beechmont to the north of Oates Dr, walk along the sidewalk to the entrance gate, and follow the path by the Sport Court to the main entrance; you will be directed to wait by the Toddler Drop Off area to connect with your child; this choice has the added benefit of entering from Peavy Dr (via Tamarack) avoiding the Oates one-way traffic altogether!
Our WRM community has been impressively flexible during this very challenging situation. Thank you all for maintaining WRM’s ‘we can do anything’ spirit!
Warmly,
Connie
