Way of the Wildcat

Please make sure to adjust your schedules to get here early! Doors will open at 8am!

Please note that NO drop-offs or arrivals to the school are allowed prior to 8am. This school year will follow the same arrival and dismissal traffic flow procedures, as we did last year. Students may be dropped off to school starting at 8am, where we have staff available for supervision of students. Students will go directly into their classrooms upon arrival.

Please review the pictures below to help with an understanding of traffic flow for arrival and dismissal, as well as general traffic information related to buses.

The lane to the west of the school is a one-way only lane (see picture #3) where traffic may come through and exit right onto Fifer St. There are times when school buses will utilize this lane for drop-off/pick-up and cars will not be permitted to pass during these times. Please follow the simple instructions posted in the pictures below so that we can establish and maintain an efficient, safe, and timely arrival and departure system.

Thank you for helping us keep our students and staff safe!

We look forward to seeing you at 8am on Wednesday, August 17th!

Do you want an activity pass for your student to attend CUSD #205 home activities and athletic events free of charge? If so, you will need to request an activity pass. Please contact the school office at 309-973-2015 to request an activity pass. Once passes are provided to the school the office will distribute passes to those who have requested them.
