PARKING REMINDERS
Remember to follow these safety precautions before school, after school, and during the mid-day kindergarten pick-up times.
1. Keep the curb area directly in front of the main entrance clear for drop-off only! Do not park there any longer than it takes to drop of your child(ren). Be quick and keep it moving!
2. Only cross the street at the corners with the crossing guards. Do not signal your student to cross in the middle of the street.
3. Be respectful of other drivers and practice common courtesy. We are examples for our young students.
4. DO NOT PARK IN THE BUS ZONE AT ANY TIME FOR ANY REASON. (We cannot emphasize this enough.)
Thank you for your continued cooperation and attention to this matter.
