Morning Drop-Off News:

When dropping your child off, please have your child’s shoes on, and breakfast finished before driving under the carport. This will greatly expedite the line.

Important: please have your child stay in your vehicle until exiting under the carport if you are in the carpool line. If you would like to have your child walk in the glass doors on Tremont, you must park your car and walk with your child to the glass doors.

Thank you for your cooperation! – Stephanie Frye, Director of Student Life
