Getting to School

Biking

Many parents and students walk and bike to The Lane, alleviating congestion and reinforcing our green initiative. Crossing guards are stationed at key intersections including The Lane and Elm.

Children in grades 3, 4 and 5 may ride their bicycles to school after having participated in a Bike Rodeo (promoting bike safety) which will be held in early September. Wear those helmets! Students must also lock their bikes once they are on school grounds.

Scooters, Skateboards and Pets

Scooters and skateboards should not be on school property during school hours. This applies to preschool age siblings as well. Due to health and safety concerns, pets should not be brought into school or on school grounds before, during, or after school. In addition, dogs should not be walked on school grounds at any time when students are present.

The drop-off and pick-up line is located in front of the school. Children should be dropped off and picked up in front of the school property along the white painted curb area ONLY.
