Bayless School District Road Project Delayed
Parents should drop children off the same way they did last year.

A road project to build a loop drive around and schools won't be done for the start of the academic year, as planned.
Bayless School District Superintendent Maureen Clancy-May said the ground has rock that is much harder and goes deeper than thought. That's delayed the project's progress, she said.Â
Since parents won't be able to use the loop drive they should just drop off their kids as they did last year.
