IMPORTANT! It is important all cars come to a full stop at the stop signs when dropping of. and picking up students. We have several students who walk and often cars are driving right through the crosswalk. Student safety is a top priority. The first violation will be a warning and the second will result in you not being able to drop off or pick up during arrival and dismissal.

ATTENTION CAR RIDERS!
If you will be dropping off and picking up your child every day please take a look at our new traffic route. You will need to enter from Spruce Drive and will exit onto Manderlay Drive. If you enter from Manderlay Drive it will be a right turn only so you will have to loop around to the end of the line. The most efficient way is to enter from Spruce Drive. This will be the traffic route during arrival and dismissal times. This will help ensure a smooth process for drop off and pick up and help to ensure the safety of our students, staff, and families. Thank you!
