Reminder: Our front loop has only two lanes for dropping off students to catch shuttle buses in the morning. DO NOT create a third lane by driving through the middle. Be patient and wait for the car in front of you to exit before moving forward. This is a significant safety issue, and we are trying to protect our students from vehicle injury.
