Please do not park in the carpool lane during morning arrival or afternoon dismissal. This area is reserved for the safe unloading and loading of our students.

All car riders should Anson Street for arrival and dismissal. Bus and bike riders should use Calhoun Street (Dogwood Alley).

Students not in class by 8:00 a.m. are marked tardy.

For the safety of our students and staff please yield to students entering and exiting their vehicle opposite of the curb during carpool. We ask that drivers please remain in your vehicle and allow staff on duty to assist your student as a courtesy to others.

If your student needs help with car seats and seat belts, after loading, please drive all the way up to assist them. We encourage you to teach students to independently perform these tasks.
