Amherst PTA Newsletter
AM DROP OFF procedure reminder
- We want to remind you that drop off begins at 8AM in front of the school.
- Please pull into our second entrance and proceed through the staff parking lot as you do for dismissal. This allows for as many cars as possible to leave Cross Road and not hold up traffic. (Careful as our staff are also parking and exiting their cars.)
- All cars should then snake through the lot and turn right following cars to the front of AMS.
- Please pull all the way up to the next parked car so we can maximize our space.
- All students should be dropped off along the curb allowing other cars to exit the line and proceed out the exit.
Thank you for your cooperation and patience.
