Dear Parents and Guardians,
As we work together to ensure the safety and efficiency of our morning car rider arrival procedures, we want to remind all families of the crucial guidelines and etiquette for car riders. These procedures are in place to keep our students safe and make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible.
Car-Rider Logistics
Morning Drop-Off:
The second and third lanes of the car rider line should be utilized in the mornings to prevent traffic from backing up at the entrance and exit. We ask that you follow the same procedures we use for afternoon pick-up. Please be courteous and allow all three lanes to merge into one lane when rounding the curb next to the drop-off area.
Drop-off begins at 7:20 a.m. and ends at 8:15 a.m. Please do not drop off students before supervision is available.
Students should be ready to exit the vehicle promptly when the car stops. We ask that students exit their vehicles when they are next to the sidewalk. We can fit four cars next to the sidewalk at a time.
