Student Drop Off Reminder
Please follow the road rules during morning drop off to ensure everyone's safety. If you are dropping off children, you may enter the east parking lot at 7:55 a.m., making a right-hand turn only. Please follow the staff’s directions and exit the lot with another right-hand turn. We kindly ask that you do not park in any of our parking lots in the morning to drop off students as space is limited and we want to ensure staff can park safely in the morning. By following these guidelines, we help keep our children safe and demonstrate the importance of community and caring for one another. Thank you for your cooperation.
