Dropping Off and Picking Up in our School Car Line
Please do not get out of the car and say your good-bye's in the morning. This is holding up our car line! If your child needs to finish breakfast, brush his/her hair, or give extra hugs, please park at the church parking lot and complete these tasks. Thank you!
Always use the marked crosswalks!
Traffic Tidbits
Thank you for continuing to help keep our students safe. Please read on for this week's traffic tidbits:
If your child needs to eat BREAKFAST, please note that breakfast is served at 7:30. If a student arrives after 8:05, the expectation is that students should report to the classroom at that time. If you are dropping your student off on Jackson Street AND your child needs breakfast, the BEST time to eat is 7:30-8:05.
