Back Car/Walkers
If you walk to meet your child in the back car area to get them and walk them home, you must have a car tag or a driver's license to identify yourself. You will be asked for these for identification purposes. This is the same procedure that we would take if you were in a car in order to ensure the safety of our students. Thank you for your cooperation with this!
