Quick reminder to parents picking up their student from school! In the student parking lot there is a section marked off for "PARENT PICK UP" . Please follow the yellow section in the diagram. Make sure to pull into one of those spots to pick up your child by 3:05 pm. Being in a parking spot minimizes the congestion and helps keep everyone safe!
