Our neighboring businesses have reached out for assistance regarding parking concerns. Some have noticed that parents are using their parking lots for student pick-up, which has created issues for them.

Let’s be good neighbors and help maintain a positive relationship with the businesses in our community! We kindly ask that you pick up your child on 5th Street or in the school’s designated parking areas at the front and rear of the campus. Please be aware that violators may be ticketed by the police department, so it's important to follow these guidelines.
