Desert Hills Elementary School

As part of our ongoing construction at Desert Hills Elementary, Phase I of the parking lot will be opened on Monday, August 5th.

The existing parking lot in front of the school will be closed. These changes are temporary but will impact traffic on Roadrunner starting on Monday.

Below are the key changes and instructions:

Parent Parking for 3rd-5th Grades:

Parents will continue using the parking lot at the Storage Facility and walking their children to the SW entrance.

Pedestrians should continue using the existing crosswalk, then walk south along Roadrunner to the asphalt walkway leading to the school.

Bus Entry:

Buses will enter on the North side of the school.

Staff Parking:

Designated area on the North side.

Pickup and Drop-off for NM PreK-2nd Grade:

Designated area on the North side.

Visitor Entrance:

Visitors will enter through the new kinder wing. Upon arrival, please call the office for access.

There will be signs to guide everyone.

Please find the attached drawing showing the new temporary changes to the front of Desert Hills.

We appreciate your patience during this construction period. These arrangements are temporary and are expected to be in place until November, when we anticipate the project will be complete.
