Parents may drop off their child using the parent pick-up side of the building which is the west entrance (closest to SR 13).  Parents may drop of students between 8:00 am and 8:25 pm.  Student patrols will assist opening the car door for your child's arrival. Cars are not permitted on the bus ramp during arrival or dismissal times. Afternoon Parent Pick-up Procedures Parents who wish to pick up their child at dismissal must use the west entrance.  Cars are not permitted on the bus ramp during arrival or dismissal times.  Cars will line up along the sidewalk near the school, back to the cafeteria loading dock, and then back along the entrance drive.  A staff person will assist with helping "weave" the cars through the parking lot so that all traffic can be stacked off of SR 16. Parent Pickup cars MUST have a "Parent Pickup Card" attached to their rearview mirror.  If your car does not have a "Parent Pickup Card" (available at Orientation or from the school office), you will be required to show appropriate ID and may have to check your child out at the office.  Students will be called to line up at a numbered cone.  As cars move to those cones, a student patrol will open the door for your child to enter your car.  Please use your turning signal when exiting the campus to assist the PSA directing traffic on SR 16.
