Road Closure

Hello McSwain Community,

We have just received information regarding a road closure at Gurr Road and Highway 140 from Cal Trans.

Construction is expected to start tomorrow.

This will impact a portion of our pick-up routine. Our drop-off process in the morning will remain the same.

As we assess the situation, we will notify our community and adjust our pick-up procedures as we continue to receive updates.

Please see the pickup and drop-off procedures below.

Drop-Off Reminder

To alleviate bottlenecks in traffic, parents who are coming to drop off their students will need to follow the procedures:

If you have a student in grade TK-3, you will drop them off in the West Campus drop-off zone.

If you have students in grades 4-8, you will drop them off in the East Campus drop-off zone.

Families with students on both campuses will drop them off on the West Campus, and a crossing guard will help walk the older students over to East Campus.

Drop-Off Norms

When pulling into the drop-off zone, please pull all the way forward

Students should exit on the passenger side of the car only

Parents should not leave their vehicle

West Campus drop-off - enter from Hwy 140 onto Scott Road

East Campus drop-off - enter from Vaughn Ave; onto Scott Road
