Coat Drive

Parking Lot Drop Off/Pick Up:
Thank you to those of you following our signage in the parking lot. As a reminder, please pull all the way up to the red sign nearest to the mobiles to allow for as many cars as possible to pick up and drop off. Students are not allowed to be dropped off or picked up in the parking lot area - students must be walked across the crosswalk with an adult or sibling over 18. Finally, there is no parking or drop off/pick up in the bus loop area. Thank you for your help!
