A note to our Lion families:
Please do not drive down or park on Madison Avenue (the street on the east side of the building) during school hours.
In the morning & afternoon, that street is where our bus lines are. Students are crossing the street & boarding buses. If the buses have their red lights flashing and their stop signs out you are not allowed to pass around them. During the day students are often crossing that street.
Drop off time for students arriving with families begins at 7:30. Pick up time starts at 3:20. If you need to drop off or pick up an elementary school student, please use the parking lot off of Center Avenue on the west side of the building. If you are dropping off a preschool student, please use the parking lot on the north side of the Early Childhood Center. If you need to come to either building during the day, please follow the same procedure.
Thank you for helping keep our students safe.
