REMINDERS – STUDENT DROP OFF AND PICK UP

Unless a parent or guardian needs to come into the building to meet with a staff member, they should not bring their children into the building. To help students learn independence, they need to line up and enter with the other students.

Students who are being picked up after school are dismissed at the northeast atrium Door #1. This is the pick-up/drop off circle.  

Remember that if you are going to get out of your car to pick up your child, you cannot park in the drop off circle. At no time will students be allowed to cross a street or walk through a parking lot without an adult. When students are dropped off in the morning, they are expected to walk to the playground on the outside sidewalks. They should not go through the building to get to the playground.

Please do not park on either side of the road directly in front of school.  The front parking lot on the west side of the building, near the pick-up lane, should be used for parents picking up their children.  At no time should children be left unattended in the parking lot or to cross the street.

Thank you for your cooperation in working with us to keep your children safe at all times.
