Safety Reminders from our Crossing Guard
- Use your blinkers to indicate if you wish to turn into the driveway and to show which direction you intend to exit.
- Do not turn into the driveway until signaled to do so in order to ensure there is space in the pick-up/drop-off lane.
- Most important: Drive slowly and use caution and patience.
