What's on the Menu?Laurel Students Love JiJi!
Street Sweeping -- Parking Alert!Street sweeping on Flower Avenue is on Thursdays. We are permitted to park anywhere along the east curb (the school side) other than the Bus Loading Zone. The City has assured us that sweeping on the east side will be done around 7:00 a.m. so as not to interfere with our school traffic. Please avoid parking on the west side (the business side) of Flower as sweeping will be done on that side later in the day, and you could be cited. Doggie OrdinanceAs per Orange County Ordinance 4-1-46 "No person having the charge of any dog except a guide dog or service dog shall permit the dog to be, under any circumstances, within public school property." It is unlawful to be on any public school property with your dog. Many families may not appreciate this news. However, due to the safety of all students and owners' liability, it is important for all to abide. Please leave all pets at home. Alley ParkingTraffic in the back alley has become a concern, especially in the mornings from 7:45 - 8:00 a.m. We ask ALL parents to enter on Birch and drive out toward Imperial. Laurel families should never drive toward Birch or park in the alley. Please be advised there is NO parking allowed in the alley. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Brea Weather |
