Brown Trail Construction: Impact on Drop-off and Pick-up Procedures
Brown Trail is currently restricted to one lane in each direction. To ensure the safety of our community and maintain traffic flow, no parking, drop-off, or pick-up on Brown Trail. Only traffic heading South on Brown Trail toward 183 allows for access to the front circle loop and the Brown Trail/Raider Way entrance. This impact will be through early September.
Front Circle Loop (Main Drop-Off)
Location: Main school entrance along Brown Trail.
Traffic Flow: Enter while traveling south on Brown Trail. Pull completely to the curb in the far-right lane and exit back onto Brown Trail.
Safety Protocols: Unload students from the right-side curb lane only. Keep the left lane clear for exiting vehicles. Do not leave vehicles unattended in the loading line.
Best For: Traffic approaching from the north and heading south on Brown Trail.
Staff/Student Lot (Drop-off in the Student/Staff Lot)
Location: South side of campus, accessible via Brown Trail and the Highway 183 access road. Speed limit 10 mph
Southbound Brown Trail Traffic: Turn right onto Raider Way to access this lot by turning left past the portable buildings into the staff/student lot.
Northbound Brown Trail Traffic: Access from the Highway 183 service road Raider Bowl entrance.
Best For: Traffic coming from south of Highway 183 or traffic exiting toward Highway 183 East/West.
Pleasant View Dr.
Location: North side of campus.
Restriction: The Bus Circle Drive on Pleasant View Dr. is for buses only.
Eastbound Traffic: Pick up and drop off students at the curb; students may enter through the B-Hall entrance.
Traffic Tips & Peak Hours
Peak Times: Arrival is heaviest between 8:15 AM and 8:45 AM. Afternoon dismissal is heaviest between 3:45 PM and 4:30 PM.
School Hours: Doors open daily at 7:15 AM. Students are late for 1st period after 8:40 AM.
Early Arrival: We encourage early drop-offs to avoid traffic; students are welcome to relax in the cafeteria before school starts.
Afternoon Pickup: To avoid the heaviest congestion, consider picking up your student after 4:30 PM. Students may wait in the cafeteria after school.
Late Pickup (After 4:30 PM): Access the staff/student parking lot via the Highway 183 Access Road/Raider Bowl entrance and have your student walk to your parked vehicle.
