Friday, Thomas Jefferson Elementary Principal Lisa Sharp sent out an email to parents at the school informing them of a number of changes related to dropping off students at the school.

“We need your help! It has come to my attention that the drop off in the morning has become a big (mess),” she wrote.

Sharp encouraged parents to let their children out of their cars at whatever point they come to a stop when pulling into the drop-off lane on the west side of the school building. Some parents were waiting to get to the end of the drop-off lane, which was causing traffic tie-ups.
