Attention Parents and Guardians at School Drop-Off and Pick-Up - The loop is for quick drop-offs and pick-ups ONLY. If you need to leave your vehicle or will be there for more than a few seconds, please park on the street. We have had traffic being backed up in the mornings and the afternoons which takes up time from other parents.
Thank you - Mrs. Hennix
