Morning Student Drop Off-IMPORTANT
1. For the safety of our Crockett Roos, please do not use the west parking lot for student drop off. This area is designated for buses, daycares, and special need students. You need special permission to use this entrance in the morning for drop off. When parents drop off here without permission, it creates back up for buses or even prevents them from being able to drop off students which causes them to be late to their next location.
2. For the safety of our students, please remember to not park in the drive-thru drop off lane on Jameson Street. If you choose to park, you can park in the east parking lot and walk your child up.
3. For your child's safety, the drop off location off of Jameson closes promptly at 7:50. The door is closed and locked at this time. If your student arrives after 7:50, you will need to park in the east parking lot, walk your child in, and check them in at the office. We ask that you not drop them off on Jameson Street when the doors are closed. We also ask that you refrain from dropping them off in the east parking lot and allow them to walk in on their own. Your child's safety is important to us.
4. For the safety of Crockett Roos, please ensure your child is not dropped off in the street of Jameson. Please pull over to the drop off lane or the crosswalk to ensure they are let out safely at the curb.
Thank you for your continued support in keeping our Crockett Roos safe!
