Parent Pick-Up in the Car Line

Please do not wait in the parent pick-up line for student pick-up until dismissal for kindergarten at 2:55 PM, or 1st-8th grade at 3:00 PM. In the case of an emergency we need to ensure that emergency vehicles are able to quickly enter and access the campus. Thank you in advance for your cooperation!

Drop Off & Pick Up Procedures

Safety is always our #1 priority! Please make sure to follow the signs that are located in the Parking Lot when dropping off and picking up students. Students are only allowed to be dropped off in the "drop off lane" and not in the parking lot, unless you are parking and walking your child up to the front gate. This is to ensure safety of all students! In the past, we have had some incidents that students have been injured/and almost injured due to dropping off in the parking lot! We truly need your help to ensure safety for all students.


Please make sure to drive slowly through the parking lot. Thank you for your support in keeping students safe!
