Safety First
When dropping students off in the car line, please be sure your child is ready to exit your vehicle when you reach the front of the school. Please have their belongings (backpack, lunch box, etc) ready. Pull all the way forward in the line as directed by a staff member.
When entering our driveway during drop off and pick up, please enter the driveway by turning right. This will help keep the flow of traffic moving. When exiting campus during drop off and pick up, please adhere to the Right Turn only sign.
Please remember that if you are visiting with your child during lunch, you are only permitted to have lunch with your child during their scheduled lunch time.
Also, if you would like to send a treat in to school for your child's birthday, those are only served during lunch time and should be store bought. We do not permit pizza or lunch style food to be served to an entire class during lunch. Due to allergies, store bought cupcakes, cookies or small snacks are ideal.
