Parents,

We know the car rider line is not processing as fast as you would like at the current time; but we cannot compromise the safety of our staff and students.

One thing that I have noticed is the light leaving Lee's Lane @ Cane Run Rd is not in our favor currently. Typically, around this time of year, they alter the lights and allow for the lights to be extended in our favor to support our drop off and pick up processing. This has been requested and should be altered within the week.

Until then, we ask that you continue to follow the arrival and dismissal plans:
Turning RIGHT into the bus compound to enter the Car Rider Line.
Encourage your student to be prepared when entering or exiting the car promptly upon entry.
Yeilding to pedestrians at all times.
Not parking on the railroad tracks.
Not using side lots/businesses to meet your child for arrival/dismissal.
Not using the staff parking lots to meet your child for arrival/dismissal.

Thank you for your attention to these details and we appreciate your patience as the system gets better for all of us.

Respectfully, Principal Smith

We are happy to share that Coach Hopson has been released from the hospital and is recovering well. We appreciate your thoughts and support during this time.

However, due to her ongoing recovery, we will need to postpone Game Day Cheer tryouts until further notice. Once Coach Hopson is medically cleared to return to work, we will set a new tryout schedule and communicate it to all families.

Thank you for your continued patience and understanding.
