Morning Reminders: Students can enter the building on the front or side in the morning. If you plan to drop off in the front of the school, please come from the East side and turn right into the parking lot. If you plan to drop off on the side of the school, please enter the parking lot from the West side into the left lane. It is a challenge when parents are changing lanes once they have entered the parking lot.
