Dear Parents and Guardians,

We are all aware that morning and afternoon traffic around campus can be backed up around the daily drop off and pick up times. With so many people moving on and off campus during these times, we ask that everyone take a moment to read through this letter and adhere to our established set of drop off and pick up procedures for the safety and security of everyone.

As a general rule, all drivers need to practice courtesy, responsibility, and patience. It is of critical importance for all drivers to be mindful of pedestrians at all times. 

We suggest the following as ways to ease congestion:

• Allow the buses access to the drop-off/pick-up lane first
• Keep the traffic moving as much as possible
• Please drive as far forward as you can in the drop off / pick up zone
• Pull up close, but at a safe distance to the car in front of you
• Do not cross over the solid white traffic line to cut in or take short cuts
• Do not leave your car in the drop off lane while you go into the school. If you need to go into the school, please park in a visitor designated parking space
• If you have to wait in a no parking zone, stay to the right, close to the yellow curb, and do not leave your car unattended
• In an effort to reduce vehicular traffic traveling through our designated pedestrian crosswalk, dropping off and picking up students in the Faculty and Board of Education parking lot is strictly prohibited

Please be mindful that parking/idling in the faculty parking lot during school hours, including dismissal time is strictly prohibited by local ordinance and posted signage. 

Our collective adherence to these procedures will help everyone to have a safe and secure experience on our campus.

Sincerely,

Dr. Gregory Vacca
