Student Drop off and Pickup

The front parking lot along Sugnet is reserved for school buses only between 7:30-8:00am and 2:40-3:10pm. Please do not use this lot for drop off or pickup during these times. The best places to drop your student off during these times are either in the back of the building or in the parking area between NMS and Plymouth.  Rules for dropping off in the back are:

• The left lane is a moving lane. Do not stop and drop off your student while in the left lane. 

• The right lane is the drop-off lane. Pull over and stop and let your student out.  Please DO NOT park and exit your vehicle in this lane. 

Office Drop-Offs

As always, please encourage your students to have everything they need before leaving for school each day. If they do forget something feel free to drop it off in the office. If your student contacts you and asks you to bring an item, please let them know you will bring it and that they should check the office between classes or before lunch.  

Fines for Chromebook Labels

If either the asset tag from the back or the large student information tag from the front is removed or defaced a $5 fine will be issued for each label. If either label is peeling or fading, report this to the office or library so a replacement can be ordered.

The ROCK after-school program

The ROCK is a productive after-school program that instills confidence and a sense of belonging. They also provide mentorship, tutors, games, activities, food, and a safe place for teens. This is a drop-in program that runs from 2:50-6:00 PM; meaning your student can leave when it makes sense for your family. All participants must be pre-registered.  

• Snow Days:  The ROCK will NOT be open.
