• Ways to Make Morning Drop Off Easier and Safer - First of all, thank you for faithfully dropping off your children each and every morning! It's that time of year when we all need a refresher to make morning drop off easier and safer.
1. Do drive south along Mary's Lane towards the school.
2. Do allow your child(ren) to exit via the car's passenger side.
3. Do allow your older child(ren) to exit the car's passenger side at any point once your car is aligned with the school building.
4. Do pull up to the dumpster if you need to exit the car and unbuckle car seats or five-point harnesses.
5. Do enter through the main school entrance if you need to walk things into school.
6. Do take extra caution if you need to pass the car line on the left as you exit the southbound way.
If you have questions about the drop off, please contact Mr. Clady.
