NEW PARKING LOT PROCEDURES
- Traffic should flow around the parking lot and through the pick up lane in FRONT of the school (NO DROP OFF OR PICK UP ON THE EASE SIDE OF THE SCHOOL).
- Cars should keep traffic moving and pull forward as students are picked up.
- Cars should NOT take a left turn out of the parking lot during student pick up and drop off.
- Cars should NOT block the turn lane into the parking lot.
- Parents should remain in the car at all times while in the drop off lane - please do not exit your car for any reason during pick up or drop off. We will have safety patrols to assist you.
- If you need to enter the school, please park in the parking lot to the EAST of the school building - the front parking spots should NOT be utilized during pick up or drop off.
- Be aware of the adult and student crossing guards.
Please refrain from finishing breakfast, getting in your last hugs(I know it's hard!), talking on your phone or finishing homework in the drop off lane. Please find a parking spot park if you have unfinished business with your child.
Let's all work together to help make our student drop off and pick up safe, quick and courteous!
