Drop off and Pick up
Our drop-off and pick-up is a smooth operation, and we take great pride in that! Our goals are to keep everyone safe, and keep the line moving to expedite the process.
Please form two lanes: the inside lane for waiting, dropping off and picking up, and the outside lane for passing/leaving.
Please use caution and follow the directions of staff
Pull as far forward as possible before stopping. Please do not stop if there is space in front of you to pull forward. Pulling as far forward as possible reduces traffic back-up.
Maintain two lanes: inside lane for pick up/drop off, outside lane for passing and exiting.
It is unlawful to be on electronic devices while driving in a school zone.
Drive slowly in the neighborhood & watch for pedestrians & bicycles: many of our students walk to and from school.
Nurse Update
ASD will have community flu shot clinics at the end of October.
