As part of ongoing construction at Desert Hills Elementary, Phase I of the parking lot will open on Monday, August 5. The existing parking lot in front of the school will be closed. These changes are temporary but will impact traffic on Roadrunner starting Monday.
Key changes and instructions include:
- Parent Parking for 3rd-5th Grades: Parents will continue using the parking lot at the Storage Facility and walking their children to the SW entrance. Pedestrians should use the existing crosswalk, then walk south along Roadrunner to the asphalt walkway leading to the school.
- Bus Entry: Buses will enter on the North side of the school.
- Staff Parking: Designated area on the North side.
- Pickup and Drop-off for NM PreK-2nd Grade: Designated area on the North side.
- Visitor Entrance: Visitors will enter through the new kinder wing. Upon arrival, they should call the office for access.
There will be signs to guide everyone.
A drawing showing these temporary changes has been attached. The arrangements are expected to remain until November when project completion is anticipated.
