Supply Lists
Here is a list of suggested supplies for the school year.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FROM THE TOWN OF RUTLAND!
TRAFFIC ADVISORY: There will be a traffic pattern change coming soon to the driveway between Naquag Elementary and Central Tree Middle School.
The driveway
BETWEEN the two schools will become one way, northbound, from CTMS to Naquag.
Why?
• Creating a one way street will allow for the creation of at least 50 additional parking spaces along the driveway between the schools.
• Naquag’s parent pickup line will be moved OFF of Main St and onto the one way driveway, making the Main St area much safer.
• The one way driveway will reduce cut through traffic from the 142 new homes being built at Rutland Heights.
Rutland DPW will be installing signage and painting lines over the next couple weeks, with the change being implemented before the start of school on August 27th.
There will be several more announcements before the change is made. We look forward to your cooperation and appreciate your partnership in ensuring the safety of our drivers and pedestrians.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR PARENT PICKUP
The Parent Pickup line will now be on the one way driveway between Central Tree and Naquag. Cars will line up at the corner of the building by the back playground. Cars will then be directed to the circle to receive your children.
As to not disrupt Central Tree's dismissal procedures, please do not line up for parent pickup before 3:05. Thank you.
