Parents,

On Wednesday, August 27, 2008, our door access system will be activated. The building will be locked down from 9:10 until 4:15.   Visitors should come to the front doors and press the button on the access panel.  The front desk employee will buzz in visitors if they recognize the visitor.  All other visitors will need to show photo ID.  The front desk employee will be able to converse with the visitors via the phone system.  Please be prepared to access the building one person at a time.

We are pleased the Shelby County School system has provided the increased security for your children and our staff.  We realize there will be some inconveniences, but we appreciate the safety factor.
