STUDENT DROP OFF

Parents, please understand that there are drop off procedures at our school for safety reasons.


Please DO NOT drop-off students at any other location other than Door #18, which is located around the rear of the building (near the gym).


Additionally the drop off line must be accessed from Old Freehold Road, you may not enter the campus from any other entrance. Thank you for your cooperation as we attempt to keep all of our students safe as they arrive at school. Please see the map below for more details.


The drop off line is largest between 7:00am and 7:15am. Arriving prior to this time will allow for a smoother drop off with less wait time.


Please refrain from dropping students off in the staff parking lots outside the media center and near the gym. Additionally, we ask that students not be dropped off on Old Freehold Road.


Our primary goal is the safety of our students and staff as they enter the building. Thank you so much for your assistance with this.
