School Student Drop Off and Pick Up Before and After School

Our number one priority at Bridger Public Schools is student safety. Over the past few weeks, we have observed several unsafe traffic situations, including vehicles not stopping at crosswalks for students, driving around school buses while students are loading or unloading, and making U-turns in the street during after-school pickup.

We are reminding all families that it is essential to follow proper procedures when dropping off and picking up students.

At the elementary school, at the end of the day, please pull your vehicle all the way forward to the end of the sidewalk near the basketball courts to begin the pickup line. If you need to come inside the building, please park in the parking lot. You may exit the lot through the alley or by looping back around to the street.

Thank you for helping Bridger Public Schools remain a safe and welcoming place for our students.

FYI I know that there has been a lot of activity in the area with TCT and NW energy crawling in your back yards and alley's now MDU is going to be there also they will be checking meters for corrosion. I understand the inconvenience but have patience with the utility workers and the faster they can do their job the quicker we get back to normal. Don't hesitate to call if you think someone is in there that is not supposed to be we will come check it out.
Also dog tags are in 10 dollars thru the month of May .
Be safe
