Parents and Guardians, please complete the 5 Essentials Survey by March 11, 2023. We appreciate your feedback and insight! Click HERE to take the survey!
Reminders about arrival and dismissal to school:
- Students are allowed to be dropped off at 8 am, but no earlier.
- Pull ALL the way up in the "U" area. Trust the process and follow the staff members' guidance in the "U" area pick-up. If a staff member is asking you to pull up or motioning for you to pull up, simply do so. We are all doing our best to get you in and out of arrival/dismissal as quickly and safely as possible.
- Pulling up all the way through the "U" area allows us to get more cars off of Seminary St.
- Be mindful of our crossing guards as they are doing their best to provide safe crossing for all of our Wildcats.
- If you are exiting the car and parking, please make sure to use the sidewalks and navigate to them rather than walking through the center of the parking lot. This is dangerous and blocks traffic in the "U" area. It is also a dangerous practice to have students walking between moving cars.
