Parents/guardians of afternoon car riders:

If you arrive early for dismissal, you may queue up in the parking lot lane adjacent to the school and the outer parking lane only. We reserve the inner lanes for those who have emergencies or school business during the last hour of the school day. When queuing up, you may NOT block the sidewalk by the park on Jouett Creek or the entrance to the apartments. When the outer parking lot is full, please start the rest of the line at the corner of Jouett and Hayes Boulevard. (Parking/queuing on Jouett Creek is not allowed per city police.)

The solid orange line on the map indicates the yellow “NO PARKING” zone. All cars for pick-up and drop-off must stay to the left of the yellow line in front of the school. Note: Pick-up and drop-off is one lane, with no passing allowed.

Yellow stars denote where staff members direct traffic on the corner of Hayes and Jouett as well as staff assist children into cars on the sidewalk beside the building.
