AC elementary school is changing traffic rules

Parents at Roosevelt Elementary School in Ark City are being asked to follow some pick-up and drop-off rules that are in effect while the building is being renovated.

Principal Jeri Crumbliss said the following changes are in effect immediately:

The south entry doors at the corner of Walnut and C Street are closed except for emergency exit purposes.

Traffic flow on Walnut, between B and C Streets, is reduced to a single lane. Parents are encouraged to avoid this area.

All bus traffic will be directed to the B Street doors, which are near the gym.
All students should arrive to school and leave school through the main, C Street entrance or through the B Street doors, as directed by staff members.

Entrance into the fenced construction zone is strictly prohibited.

The school will notify parents of changes as they develop. For more information, please call the school at 441-2070.
