Middle School & High School Morning Drop-Off
Let's Make It Smoother Together
Our elementary schools have been using colored cones to help with drop-off for years, and it’s worked, so now we're bringing it to middle and high school.
Look for the cones – they mark where it's safe for students to exit.
The Key Move: Pull All the Way Forward
Drive to the farthest cone before your child gets out. This creates space for more cars behind you, getting more vehicles off the road and into our drop-off lanes.
The Benefits
Less road traffic – more cars in our lanes means fewer cars backing up on streets
Safer for everyone – organized flow reduces congestion and risky maneuvers
Faster mornings – multiple cars dropping off at once = less waiting
Middle School Details
Primary drop-off: Main loop (across from Ralya)
After 7:10 AM: Bus loop opens as second option (near administration building)
High School Details
Use designated drop-off areas only – please do not drop students off in staff parking lots that are adjacent to the drop-off lane.
We’ll be out there to help reinforce this for everyone. Let's work together to make our mornings run smoothly!
Thanks for helping keep our students safe and our community moving smoothly.

Word Finds: Engaging with Constitution-related vocabulary.
Interactive Preamble Activities: Exploring the purpose and principles outlined in the Preamble.
School House Rock Constitution: Elementary students enjoy this video.
Reading the book- We the Kids:The Preamble to the Constitution of the United States., discussing, and checking for understanding.
Comparing Rules: Drawing parallels between the Constitution's principles and classroom rules.
Debates: Using an amendment from the Bill of Rights as a topic for discussion and debate.
Creative Projects: Writing a rap or song to review key constitutional concepts.
Video Discussions: Watching videos such as The Birth of the Constitution to learn about its creation and discussing the historical context.
Be sure to ask your child what they learned to continue the conversation at home!

High School & Middle School Athletics
Thank you, families, for helping us with the new safety & security procedures at varsity football games. You might have noticed a couple of changes at last Friday's game, the biggest one being our new no re-entry policy.
