Drop Off Procedures Drop Off Procedures

Parents, please follow our morning procedures:


  1. Drop your children off in the car rider line before 8:00 am.
  2. There is no parent walk in after the first day of school.
  3. If you arrive at school at or after 8:00 am, you must park in the front and walk your child/children into the building. The carline closes to all students except Pre-K at 8:00 and the back doors will be locked.
  4. If you are in the car rider line, please do not block the neighbor's driveways.
  5. Please have your student prepared to exit the car once you are stopped past the big blue dumpster to help speed up the carline. Please do not allow your children to get out of the car if you have not yet reached the big blue dumpster.
  6. Please do not let students out of the car on Trail Ridge or Grizzard. It is dangerous as there is no adult supervision or sidewalks to the school entrance.

This is for everyone's safety! Thank you!
