Franks Families-

Drop off may only happen where there is green marking.
1. Drop off along N. Fort Worth and students walk through the U drive into our new front door. Do NOT drive into the U drive.
2. Drop off along Jax and students enter through the gym.
3. Pull into the U drive off of Parker and students enter through the K/6 door.

Do NOT enter the drive where there is red marking, that is for a bus loop and Life Skills students ONLY.

Do NOT drop off along N. Fort Worth where there is red marking.

Thank you for working with us to ensure all of our students are safe.
