As your student walks away, please drive forward until you get to the red line and can then turn your call into the passing lane out of the blacktop.
AFTERNOON PICK - UP PROCEDURES
Stay in your lane as you drive up to the blacktop - you can shift into 4 different lanes as you approach the designated pick- up area. First car in each line should pull up to the red line.
Drive into the “waiting area” of your designated lane -> move forward as the car in front of you moves. The first car of each lane should pull up to the RED LINE painted on the pavement.
LANE 1 does not have a passing lane. When ready to leave, you should safely turn out of the lane to merge with other cars that are exiting the blacktop.
LANES 2, 3, 4 - when ready to leave, merge into the “passing lane” and drive forward to exit (school staff will direct you on Lanes 3 & 4).
DO NOT wait for your student while in the “passing lane.”

Please do not park in front of the MPR during drop off and pick up times. Thank you!
