New Drop Off/Pick Up Guidelines!

Parents, I am seeing some very unsafe situations and near misses during drop off and pick up. Student safety is my number one priority. Please drive slow, put your phones down, and watch for pedestrians and bike riders! Please read the information below and follow all of our guidelines.


Over the summer, the city of Brea installed upgrades to our sidewalks in compliance with ADA regulations. This required an additional crosswalk south of Falcon's driveway entrance. This is a new crosswalk and while convenient, the crosswalk has caused a disruption to our traffic flow as well as an increased safety issue to pedestrians.


Effective immediately, the new crosswalk (south of our entrance on Apricot) will be off limits and not used during drop off and pick up. Please see the diagram below.


I am hoping that this new guideline will streamline our drop off line and keep our students safe!


Thank you for your cooperation!
