Attention Carthage Colonies Parents:
Due to the abundance of street parking in your neighborhood, the district has made the decision to implement community stops for student pick-up and drop-off. This change will affect both morning and afternoon stops in the Carthage Colonies community and is effective immediately.
The designated stops are as follows:
Quartermaster & Gloucester Dr
Gloucester Dr & Golden Horseshoe Ln
Quartermaster & Golden Horseshoe Ln
