Morning drop-off: Starting Wednesday, busses, daycare, and families with a decal will be permitted to use the front loop during morning drop-off. Everyone else will use the side loop, or the visitor's parking lot. If you use the side loop, please remember to stay in your car, and have your child exit on the passenger side. Please do not create multiple lanes, or pass cars unless directed by a traffic monitor. If you would like to park and walk your child in, you may park in the visitor's lot. We truly appreciate your support and cooperation. Together, we can create a safe environment for our Polar Bears!
