PARKING LOT TRAFFIC PATTERN


MORNING DROP OFF


  • Please honor the “NO PARKING – LOADING ZONE” signs.  The loading zone is for student drop off only.
  • Cars will move all the way to the beginning of the line.  Cars will move taxi-style ---each taking a turn.  DO NOT OVERTAKE ANOTHER CAR.
  • Pull up close to the curb.  Please have your child sit on the passenger side of the car and ready for a quick drop off to facilitate the flow of traffic.  DO ALL MORNING NECESSITIES ---  COMBING HAIR, TYING SHOELACES, SIGNING PAPERS, EATING BREAKFAST, ETC. AT HOME, NOT AT THE DROP-OFF SITE.
  • When possible, JPOs will open and close the passenger side car door to assist your child to exit the vehicle quickly and safely.
  • If you need to go to the office or classroom, please park in the visitor parking or along the street.  (All numbered stalls are reserved for faculty/staff.)
  • Students who arrive before 7:45am should go to the café for breakfast or sit at their assigned grade level area in front of the cafeteria until dismissed to class at 7:45 am.

 

AFTERNOON PICK-UP

 

  • Pick up areas are on the sidewalk marked with yellow lines.
  • Do not ask your child to wait by the cafeteria parking lot, in front of the cafeteria, or the office.  Waiting in front of these areas will cause confusion/disruption with students in the A+ program. 
  • Do not make any U-Turns from the drop off lane.
  • RAINY DAYS:  All students will stand under the office eaves to wait for parent pick-up

 

NOTE: Do not leave young children unattended in parked or engine running A/C cars while picking up your child(ren) before or after school.
