Due to an increased number of car riders in the afternoon, we will make the following changes immediately:

Kindergarten students and their siblings will be picked up in the FRONT of the school every afternoon.
First through fourth grade students will be picked up in the south loop at the BACK of the building every afternoon.

In order to keep all students safe, anyone who picks up a student must have a car tag to pick up the student.

Thank you for helping us create a safe environment for our students!
