*Attention Parents of CAR RIDERS*
DISMISSAL CHANGES STARTING TODAY!
Parents/guardians will pull in as you have been but will drive straight back to the back of the building. There is a circle drive behind the building. When you pull in, stay to the right of the drive, pull all the way down around the outside of the circle, and make your way back up to the north side of the building. There will be a cone where I would like the first car to stop. Stay in a single file line like we do now and we will follow the same procedures. Teachers will radio for your student(s) and put them in your car. Students will be exiting out of exit M (the gym door on the side).
I will have staff members outside to help direct you today to avoid confusion.
Thank you for your continued support and patience.
Have a wonderful week,
Mrs. Kesler
