Parents, Students and Friends - 

Bus Lane Safety Concern
Because of ongoing safety concerns from students exiting cars in the bus lane, we ask parents to please not use the bus lane in front of the school for student pick up/drop off.  We ask that instead you use only the north or south parking lots. These parking lots are designed to facilitate a circular traffic pattern which makes using them as a drop off/pick up zone convenient and much safer. Your help with this important safety issue is appreciated.
