ELEMENTARY PARENTS/GUARDIANS!
We want to remind you of the drop off plan in the morning at the elementary. Some key things to remember:
- SLOW, our number one priority is the safety of our kids.
- Pull up to the right curb to drop off, teachers will be passing on the left to get to our parking lot.
- Students NEED to exit the vehicle on the right side to the sidewalk. If they have to get out on the left, please be cognizant of passing cars.
-We now have a sidewalk all the way across the front, please pull all the way up so we can drop off as many kids at once as possible.
