Student Drop-off & Pick-up

Students are to use Door 8 in the morning to enter the building before school. Drop-off is in the main parking lot by the gym and entrance to Door 8. No students are to use the Main Entrance unless they are arriving after the school day begins and Door 8 is locked.

After school, pick-up is outside Door 3 and Door 8. For safety of students and emergency vehicle access, the drives are to remain clear of standing traffic. Drivers must pull into a parking space to wait for their students. This will help alleviate traffic congestion and make the parking lot and drives much safer for those students who are walking to meet rides or leaving our campus.
