Pick Up For Student Drivers:

Exit the building through the gym doors.  Look carefully before heading across the street as there will be additional vehicle traffic from students being picked up. Exit the student parking lot at the lower entrance, across from the soccer field, where you typically enter in the morning.

  • Cars will enter the carline through the first entrance to the right off the main driveway

  • Cars will double lane around the bottom of the front circle

  • Cars will continue the double lane along the front of the school

  • Cars will turn right at the end of the sidewalk and continue to double lane along the side of the building

  • A staff member will be asking for the name(s) of the students you are picking up and radio into the gym for those students.

  • After giving the name(s) of the students you are picking up, cars will alternate from each lane to merge into a single lane along the back of the high school gym.

  • Students will exit the gym to find their ride.

  • Once you have your student(s) please carefully pull out to the left around cars who may still be waiting for their student(s) so that other cars can continue to pull up

  • Exit the parking lot at the top of the lot, next to the dumpster corral.

 

Schedules

Students will receive their official schedule on the first day of school in their homeroom (advisory/CATS) on colored paper. All students need to follow their assigned schedule, even if they are hoping to make a change to that schedule.
