PICK-UP LANE CAR TAGS
We will be using Car Tags again this year for our pick up lane students. Many of you are familiar with these tags if you participated in the West Shore process in the past. You will only need ONE tag per building if participating in both lanes. To obtain your tag please stop in the office. If you still have a sign from last year or West Shore they are the same, please use it this year.
CHANGE IN END OF THE DAY PICK-UP
Any bus changes must be approved by the principal at least 24 hours in advance. Students are not allowed to take alternative buses home unless their is an emergency situation. Please do not use bus transportation as a means of transporting friends for after school social or extracurricular events. Our buses have capacity limits and we cannot add students to bus routes. We care about the safety of our students and therefore must closely monitor ridership on our school buses.
TRAFFIC SAFETY
We realize the morning and afternoon can be busy times in our parking lots at West Shore and Torrey Hill. Please help with traffic concerns by avoiding crossing over the incoming lane (AM) and outgoing lane (PM) at West Shore (Lahring entrance).
Also, if you enter Torrey Hill from Torrey Rd., please remember you can only turn right at the flagpole. Some are turning left where the sign, "No Left Turn", is located. Thank you for your support.
