Also consider following us on Facebook at La Mesa Junior High and Instagram @LaMesaJHS.
Sincerely,

Drop off and Pick up
- Pull all the way forward before unloading and loading students. Gaps in front of cars slows everything down.
- Please do not be on cell phones as you come through the valet. It is very dangerous.
- Please be kind to our crew moving you through the valet. Our goal is to help you, not harass you. We know you are in a hurry and we are doing everything we can to move you through safely and quickly.
- Pull all the way forward before unloading and loading students. Gaps in front of cars slows everything down.
- Do not come into the bus loop. It looks like a good idea, but the law requires us to keep it free of cars.
- Have your child gather all their things and exit quickly from the vehicle. If you have a lot to unload, please wait until you are at the end of the valet line to unload.
- Pull all the way forward before unloading and loading students. Gaps in front of cars slows everything down.
- At pick up, keep pulling forward.
For those of you choosing to drop off in the neighborhood, please be respectful of our neighbors.
- Do not block driveways or use them to turn around.
- Remind children to stay off property while they wait for you.
- No double parking.
Please follow all traffic laws including not stopping and dropping off in the bus area on May way. Deputies do ticket.
Please do not U-turn in front of the school.
We thank you for working positively with us to ensure drop off and pick up goes safely and smoothly.
Schedule Pick Up
Before and After School Supervision 8:00 am - 4:00 pm
Supervision is available after school until 4:00 pm. Students involved in an after-school activity that ends after 4:00 pm should have a ride waiting for them. Students who are left unsupervised will be prohibited from participating in after-school activities.
We understand that emergencies arise. Please have a backup plan ready for situations where your regular plan falls through or traffic causes you to be late.
The safety of your child is a priority for us. This is a shared responsibility. Please partner with us to ensure your child is well supervised and safe.
