Reminders
Parking:
We have had a few reports of students running in the parking lot before and after school. Please know that the parking lot is not meant to be a drop-off or pick up location. We have a sign in the parking lot now indicating the start of staff parking and end of parent parking. Please do not drop off your child in the parking lot and only park/drop off beyond the sign if you have an accessibility parking pass.
