Parents and guardians,
Please make sure when you are dropping off your student before school or picking your child up after school that you refrain from using your phone in the loading zones. We had a dangerous situation occur yesterday with a student exiting a car and another vehicle came zooming past a line of cars. This particular person was distracted by using their phone and did not see the student which created a dangerous situation. Thank you for your help in this matter.
