The adults have been told that they will no longer be allowed to use the track when students are in session this fall, according to FiOS1.

A number of adults who exercise on the track daily said they were angered by the decision and believe that they should be allowed to use the track because their tax dollars help maintain it, according to FiOS1.

The school district is apparently ready to institute the policy for the coming school year as an added security measure, according to FiOS1, which reported that some of those upset by the new policy plan to take their complaints to the district's Board of Education.
