Drop-Off Driving Safety
As the end of the school year approaches, life seems to get busier and busier.  Maintaining safety for our students is still our most important concern. There have been several near accidents in front of school during drop-off in the morning.   To keep students safe, please refrain from the following:
·      No U-turns in the street in front of school if there is oncoming cars.
·      Make sure there isn’t a car approaching when pulling away from the curb after dropping off your child.
·      Do not park on the school side when buses are dropping off students.
·      Do not park in cross-walks.
·      Slow down when approaching the school.  There are many pedestrians on the sidewalk and street.
·      Lastly, please look around carefully and be aware of all moving vehicles and pedestrians.
