🚗 Drop-Off & Pick-Up Safety Reminders 🚸

Please help us keep ALL students safe by following school zone and traffic procedures:

🚦 School Zone: Follow posted speed limits, crossing guards, and staff directions. No U-turns, passing, or stopping in the roadway.

🚗 Kiss & Drop: Use both lanes, pull forward as far as possible, and wait for staff to signal before students exit or vehicles leave the loop.

🅿️ Parking: The front parking lot is currently closed before and after school. Please park only in legal, designated areas—never block driveways, crosswalks, fire lanes, red zones, or double park.

🚲 E-Bikes & Scooters: Riders must follow all road safety rules and may not ride on school property, including the parking lot.

Thank you for your patience, cooperation, and commitment to keeping our school community safe! 💙
