As Lafayette High School prepares to open its brand-new campus to students on Thursday, August 7, school and district leaders are sharing important traffic flow information to ensure a safe and smooth start to the school year.
All LHS traffic—including parents, students, buses, and faculty—will enter the campus via Marie Antoinette Street from Congress Street.
