Drop-off/ Pick-up Procedures

Thank you for your help to make the afternoon pick and morning drop off move as

smooth as possible. There are a couple of reminders to help the pickup and drop off go as

smooth and safe as possible.

In front of the school

Please wait/load in the right lane only. Please continue to pull forward as space becomes available as

you wait for your student. This will keep cars off of the highway as they line up. Once your student

has loaded, please move into the left lane to exit the parking lot. Please do not load any students in

the left lane. This lane is meant to be a drive through lane only. There is no stopping in this

lane. Please do not have your student cross these two lanes to load a vehicle. Avoid parking in the

parking stalls directly in front of the school, this will avoid having students run in front of moving cars.

If you would like to park to wait for your student, please park in the parking lot to the south of the en-

trance to the school, by the tennis courts.

In bus area

Please do not use this area as a drop-off or pick-up area, the congestion makes it difficult for the bus-

ses to get to their next assignment on time. The road behind the school is closed from 5:30 am to 4:00

pm every weekday. We have approximately 700 students crossing the road to unload and load bus-

es. Please do not drive in this area; we want to keep our students and drivers safe.

7th grade Student Council Elections

7th grade student council elections coming up soon. Two students will be elected, after an application and cam-paign process. More information will be coming soon.
