When driving through the circle drive at the front of DES please be aware that we have two crosswalks; one in front of the school at the middle of the drive and one near the end of the circle.
Pre-K Parents are coming in and out of the building at the end of the day while K-3 students are being picked up as car riders. Please watch for people crossing in both crosswalks. Thank you for your consideration.
