SONA CRIME PREVENTION AT WORK!

Several crime attempts have been averted recently:

- A front gate a neighbor's home on Kadema near Moffatt was kicked at 1:30 pm today but barking dogs sent the intruder away. SONA off-duty Sheriff's patrol has been alerted.

- On garbage pick-up day one of our neighbors noticed someone rifling through recycling containers along his street and removing paper documents. This individual was retrieving recycled papers with homeowner identity information to facilitate identity theft. The perpetrator has been apprehended but let this serve as a reminder to shred any paper with personal information before placing it in any waste or recycling container!

Front of School & Parking Lot:

• New wider sidewalks added in front of the school and by Discovery Club.
• Parking spaces added directly in front including a new handicapped ramp that will allow much safer access.
• Older cement benches were removed and new benches will be added.
• Access to the side door of the MP room has been improved.
• Parking lot will be resurfaced to eliminate the ruts and potholes.
• Grass area in front will have automatic sprinklers and will have fresh sod placed.
• Flag pole moved to the front of campus.
• Mulberry trees and boxwoods removed. New trees and seating will be added directly in front of the kindergarten wing.
• Sidewalk into the campus will be moved and enlarged.
• New containment area for garbage cans that will look a bit less ugly.

Courtyard:

• Grey colored cement will allow the courtyard to be used safely.

Kindergarten:
