Parking Lot Reminder

The parking lot is a busy place, but with a little team work we can make it work for everyone. Upper-Grade parents please allow lower-grade parents the time to drop off/pick up. When upper-grade students are dropped off during the 8:00 – 8:15 window, lower-grade students get stuck in line and are often late. During pick up, please give lower-grade parents time to gather their students before joining the pick up line. If you must be early, please park. Many lower-grade parents cannot get to their kiddos because upper-grade parents are arriving in the pickup line as early as 2:35. Let’s work as a team to get our kiddos to and from school quickly and safely.
