🚸 Your Voices Were Heard. Safety Comes First at MWS! 🚸
At The Mount Washington School, the safety of our students is our top priority. We heard the concerns from families about traffic safety at Kelly Avenue and Lochlea Road, and we’re actively working with city partners to resolve the crossing guard issue.
This intersection is critical for bus drop-offs and student crossings, and we share your concern for the safety of our Tigers. Please know that we are advocating for a guard to be reassigned as soon as possible and will keep you updated every step of the way.
Thank you for continuing to partner with us to keep our children safe. 💛🖤 #TigerStrong #SafetyFirst
