Revised - Car Rider Update!
If you use the car rider line for drop-off or pick-up, you may have noticed that some days the line doesn’t move so smoothly. We’ve noticed it as well. We would appreciate it if during car rider drop-off and pick-up (7:25-7:40 and 2:05-2:15 daily) everyone would make right turns. If you need to travel south, you can utilize Morgan Drive or South Street are options to help you loop back to Lantern Road and travel south (see map below). I know there are some of you who need to travel south from school, but left turns often cause hold-ups in the line, delaying everyone.
Breakfast students may enter the building in the morning at 7:25. All other students may begin entering the building at 7:30. Students should be in the classroom when the bell rings by 7:40 am. The orange cones signal that the car rider line is closed so that our staff and students can be in the building on time. If you see the orange cones at the entrance to our car rider line, please park in front of the main office and walk your child inside.
