Student Drop Off/Pick Up Procedures 2025-2026

8:25 AM First Bell - 8:30 AM Tardy Bell Rings

The front parking lot exit (stop sign symbol on the map) will be closed to traffic from approximately 2:45pm to 3:00pm. This will allow safe exit of our buses and students walking home. We encourage parents to pick up their students by car and use the car pick up lane.
