Thank you to all the traffic volunteers helping keep pick-up/drop-off smooth these first few week of school! Please keep in mind:

• DO NOT line up on neighborhood streets, specially 112th Ave NE and 111th Ave NE.
• ⁠Drive as far forward as you can, to the new drop-off/pick-up areas. It extends all the way to the back student/teacher parking. There is also an additional pickup/drop off area next to the basketball court. See photos below. 
• Please have your student ready to leave the vehicle with their bag in hand. Not going into the trunk, not sending another text first. 
• If you already know that more time is needed to drop off/pick up your student/s (e.g. unloading items, kiddo on crutches), go ahead and drive forward to the new area in the student lot.
