The St. Joseph Board gave the go-ahead for plans to build a new car loop and make traffic better at Oak Grove Elementary school. The project will make the driveway on Cook Road wider, add pavements and help reduce the traffic that builds up during pick-up and drop-off times. School and district leaders say the improvements are meant to make the building safer for students, make traffic flow better and make it easier for families to get there. The project shows that the school is making a bigger investment in its infrastructure, and it shows that the community is still behind making things better for students and parents every day.
