The Pasco Sheriff’s Office released the following reunification plan for parents and students at Gulf Highlands Elementary School:
*Car rider student reunification point is at Longbranch Dr and Harvest Moon Circle. We want parents to turn off 52 at Lamadera and go west on long branch until they reach their re unification point. School staff and law enforcement will be requiring identification of parents and guardians to release students.
Car riders are released first and bus riders after.
*Parents of bus riders need to stay at their bus stops as buses will be taking students to their stops. Please patient as we are releasing students late.
