Due to the potential for heavy traffic congestion during a planned Friday afternoon demonstration along U.S. 280, Vestavia Hills Elementary Cahaba Heights will dismiss at 2 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 19.
Extended Day activities scheduled for Friday at the school are also canceled.
The demonstration, planned by the Facebook group "Black Lives Matter-Birmingham", is scheduled to be held at the entrance of The Summit shopping center at 3 p.m. The event was organized as a response to the deaths of Michael Brown and Eric Garner.
