Greetings Mechanicville Family!  

It is our sincere hope that this message finds you all well and enjoying the pace and weather of the summer months. We have been busily preparing for the 2024-2025 school year and it is with great excitement that we recognize that opening day is almost here!  However, before we get too close to the start of school, we need to share with you some traffic and construction updates that will be effective next week August 26th through August 29th as we finish up our major site renovation and construction: 

As we start to have students, parents, coaches and staff return to campus for fall sports, building walkthroughs, or other scheduled activities, please note the following for accessing the Jr./Sr. High School and Elementary Buildings next week….

1  To access the Elementary building, please use the new main entrance located nearest the west side (golf course end) of campus to travel to and from the elementary school.  

NOTE: The emergency lane used to temporarily drive around the building is no longer to be used for vehicle travel or parking other than emergency or authorized vehicles only. 

2  Parking for the Jr./Sr. High School building and fields will be limited to either in the new large “student lot” located closest to Pruyn Hill – or via the Kniskern Ave parking lot 

3  The new visitor and staff parking lot located closest to the newly painted “red awning entrance” is scheduled to be working to completion and will be barricaded – remaining off limits for the week 

4 Anticipate a temporary lane closure next week on the road nearest the staff lot for finishing work, please drive slow and watch for construction team flaggers who will guide safe passage

 5 There should be no parking in any other areas but the lots above so we are able to get equipment in and out of where it needs to go for the construction in the back of campus as we prepare and finish our projects in preparation for the return of our students and staff!

Thank you in advance for communicating out and assisting us at this time.  We can’t wait to see you soon!
