A note from Mr. Dubinsky
Morning drop-off procedures
Students should not arrive at school before 8:30 a.m. When the 8:40 a.m. bell rings, students will enter the school.
When dropping off, please pull up to Briar Glen and drop off your student(s). DO NOT park your car and escort them to the school. And please DO NOT remain in your car, waiting for them to get in line or enter the school. Once your student has left your car, please pull away carefully as oncoming traffic continues down Briarcliffe Blvd.
Thank you for your help in keeping everyone safe.
