Important Traffic Flow Reminder
Parents, thank you for your cooperation and support surrounding the closure of Granada/Palm Lane during pick up/drop off. We believe it has made a positive contribution to the safety of our scholars and the efficiency of traffic flow both before and after school.
As you continue to partner with us, please be reminded there is NO Archway student drop-off from the Prep Traffic Flow lanes. Parents may not park and let Archway students out of the car from the visitor/admin parking or from the Prep car line.
This is both a safety issue (there is not a crosswalk) and a traffic flow issue. You must use the Archway Traffic Lanes (enter from Encanto Blvd) to drop off your Archway students. If you have both Archway and Prep students, please use the Archway traffic flow to drop off all your students.
