🔥 Important Safety Reminders! 🚨🚗
🚦 Student Drop-Off Safety: Parents/Guardians, for the safety of our students and staff, please DO NOT use the staff or student parking lots for drop-offs. 🚗❌ We appreciate your continued cooperation in keeping traffic flow safe and efficient. We have begun updating our signage around our parking lots to serve as reminders for our community. 🙏💙
🅿️ Student Parking Lot Random Checks: Students parking in the lot without a valid permit will be subject to progressive school discipline. 🚙❌ We continue to receive reports from students who have paid for parking but struggle to find spaces. If you do not have a permit, please make alternative arrangements.
📅 Important Reminders:
🏆 Supporting a Positive Game Day Environment: Thank you to our parents, guardians, and community members for continuing to foster a respectful and positive atmosphere at our athletic events.
We have begun enhancing our announcements and signage to reinforce that Saints Value Everyone while on our campus. 💙💛We continue to ask for everyone's help by refraining from directing any comments towards our umpires and officials as this will not be tolerated.
