Welcome to Fossil Hill
School starts on Tuesday!!
Throughout the day on Tuesday and during the coming weeks, students will be taught lessons that demonstrate what Wildcat PRIDE looks and sounds like. Our teachers have created fun lessons to share with the students that focus on our expectations not only in the classrooms but in the hallways, cafeteria, restrooms, and library. These lessons focus on being prepared, showing respect, having integrity, being determined, and striving for excellence (PRIDE).
Drop off and Pick Up Of Students
MORNING: During drop off, the front circle uses both lanes. We ask that parents pull forward slowly and without the use of cell phones while in the school zone. Please make sure your student is ready once you enter the circle to avoid delays in the traffic flow. We ask that the front 4 cars in both lanes be prepared to drop off. Please allow your student(s) to exit the vehicle once you have seen the cross walk STOP sign held up and the motion to open the door is made. Once the lanes are clear, the sign will switch to SLOW and you may pull forward. ** NOTE: the left lane is a left turn only once you leave the circle back onto Staghorn (right lane is right turn only).
AFTER SCHOOL: At dismissal, the left lane is to be left open to allow parents to pull out of the circle once they have their student. The right lane is for lining up. Parking lots are not to be used as a pick up area. If you park along Staghorn in front of the school, please do not block driveways and make sure your student knows how to safely cross the street if it is necessary. The area between the school's entrance and the stop sign at Buttonwood and Staghorn is not a good place to park given the congestion at dismissal. Generally speaking, the traffic has stopped around 4:00.
