ATTENTION PARENTS AND COMMUNITY
In cooperation with the City of New Lisbon Police Department, Fire Department, and Emergency Medical Services, the School District of New Lisbon is asking for your help in creating a safer environment for our students and staff.
Beginning on Monday, October 26, 2020, the District will be leaving sixteen (16) parking spots outside of the elementary school entrance for families to use when dropping off and picking up their children. Please do not park along the curb for an extended period (30+ seconds), as the fire lane needs to be clear if an emergency occurs. As always, please drive carefully in the loading/unloading circle as children are always present. Thank you again for your cooperation.
