PARENTS, DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR CHILDREN ARE? (Repeat Announcement)
We have had some issues with your children playing (or rough-housing) in the hallways, particularly in the East Hallway.  Children should not be in the East Hallway unless there for a Youth Bible Lesson, or using the drinking fountains, or exiting the building.  Parents, please be aware of your children’s location and their activities.
