Farmingdale School District proposes safety plan

The Farmingdale School District has put into action a Traffic Safety proposal focused on making changes that would create a safer and quicker dropoff route.

The Howitt Middle School parking lot has been improved with an additional cross-walk in front of the library. To provide a safety net, the surrounding area will be fenced to ensure that students walk within the designated cross-walk. Construction on this fenced-in area has begun. In addition, a one-way traffic pattern was established within the parking lot, helping to make the area safer for our children.

The money used for this project was taken from money that was not used for heating bills and snow removal due to the mild winter weather during the months of December and January.

The District would like to express thanks to the Traffic Safety Committee and the Village of Farmingdale for handling this issue in a timely manner, and making the changes necessary for the safety of our students.
