Dear Dedham School Families,

We want to extend our sincere apologies for the inconvenience caused by the traffic lights being taken out of commission the day before school started. While this situation was beyond our control, we truly appreciate your patience and cooperation during drop-off and pick-up times.

We are especially grateful for the support of our new School Resource Officer, Deputy Christie Scribner, who has been helping manage traffic on the north end of campus, along with the Hancock County Sheriff's Department for their assistance on the south end.

We’re hopeful that new traffic lights will be installed by the end of the week and will keep you updated on the progress.

Thank you again for your understanding and support.

Sincerely,
Larry Clement, Principal
