Parents and Guardians,
In an effort to streamline morning drop off and to eliminate students from running across the parking lot in the afternoon, we ask everyone to please follow the drop off and pick up instructions below beginning Monday, September 12. Please note that traffic should always move in one direction through the alley: East to West. This helps eliminate the blindspot of kids coming around the building as well as the small space of cars moving past each other.
Drop off times in the morning are from 7:55am - 8:10am. When dropping off in the morning, there will now be a drop off lane and a parking area:
Thank you to everyone for helping make our parking lot safer for students!
God Bless,
Michael J. Volk, Principal

- If your child(ren) is able to let themselves out of the vehicle without assistance, please continue through the drop off lane and let students out at the drop point shown.
- If the driver needs to get out of the vehicle to assist a child(ren), please park in a parking spot and do not sit in the drop off lane.
Thank you to everyone for helping make our parking lot safer for students!
