0 Comments

During morning arrival, between 7:25 am and 7:45 am, the curb area in front of the Prospect Avenue entrance is reserved for student drop-off.  There is a staff member who will assist your child/ren out of the car and into the school.  PLEASE DO NOT PARK IN FRONT OF THE PROSPECT AVENUE ENTRANCE DURING MORNING ARRIVAL, as it interferes with the drop-off procedure.  There is a parent parking lot at the south end of the school and street parking along Prospect Avenue just south of, and just north of, the drop-off zone if you would like to walk your child into the school building.  The Maryland Avenue side of the building is for bus drop-off only.  Thank you for your cooperation to help support the morning arrival process.
