Traffic Safety on Site

To all parent drivers:

To keep our students safe and to facilitate traffic flow during morning drop-offs and afternoon pick-ups, please note the following: The area between the dead-end sign and the entrance to school property is a NO CAR SAFETY ZONE.

PLEASE DO NOT DRIVE BEYOND THE DEAD END SIGN during drop-offs and pick-ups, even if the weather is inclement, or the dead end street appears empty. Only school vehicles are allowed on site.

In the morning, students being dropped off need to WALK to the school on the sidewalk on the hill side west of the dead-end street. In the afternoon, students will be walked out to the dead-end sign by a staff member to meet parent drivers.

To avoid making a U-turn, please follow either circular route described below (for a Google map, click here)
