PARKING LOT ENTRANCES AND EXITS
When bringing or picking up your child/ren to or from school, please remember to follow the arrows indicating which driveway to use to enter and exit the parking lot. The driveway closest to the circle is an entrance only while the driveway near the dentist has an entrance and exit.
Thank you for your cooperation!

TRANSPORTATION POLICY
It has been a long standing transportation policy that requests for students to ride a different bus for social reasons cannot be honored. This is in our School Handbook on page 31 which can be found on our school's website. If a request is made for a bus change due to daycare reasons, we will honor it if it is for a bus change due to daycare reasons, we will honor it if it is for a bus that is not already at capacity. We currently have buses with no extra space and a possibility of others as new students enroll throughout the school year. Before making a bus change request it would be best to contact the school or transportation to see if it is
a possibility.
