GETTING THERE FROM SHADY SIDE ACADEMY For use by SSA Middle School families REVISED August, 2007 WELCOME! This booklet is a collection of directions to most, if not all schools that SSA Middle School athletic teams will compete against during the year. Be advised that we will add new schools from time to time and we will attempt to keep up with the additions as quickly as possible! Please note that some of the landmarks that are listed may have changed and construction plans on the roads may have also changed some travel routes and travel times! While the attempt has been made to be as accurate as possible, be aware that there may be a mistake or two, particularly if an opposing school may change the location of a game. If you have any questions, please call the Middle School office or the actual school in question as to where the team is playing. As you use this book, please call the Middle School athletic department if you find any mistakes (with the corrections, if possible!) so that we can continue to provide as much accurate information to you. One additional note!! You can find the departure and return times from all Middle School games on the SSA Website. Check this often for updates and changes to your child’s schedule. Please pay very close attention to the return times or call the Middle School office for confirmation. We ask that you be at the designated pick up spot at the specified return time. Students can also call home while on the return bus ride to update you on any changes to the pick up time. While the coaches will remain with the students until they are picked up, they also would like to get home as soon as possible—please be respectful of this. HAPPY TRAVELS!
