Courtesy, Safety, & Parking Lot Reminders

As we head into the 2025–26 School Year, let’s make sure drop-off and pick-up are smooth, safe, and stress-free for EVERYONE! 💙

❌ WHAT NOT TO DO: ❌
🚫 DO NOT hop out of your car in the drop-off line: ‘Blow a ‘Kiss & Go’ 👋😘
🚫 DO NOT park in any of the RED zones 🚧
🚫 DO NOT park in front of fire hydrants 🚒
🚫 DO NOT block mailboxes, driveways, or any neighbors’ access (Let’s be good to our neighbors 🧥🐯) – both at the front and back gates! 🌉
🚫 DO NOT park in any of the following RESERVED spots:
– Parking Pass Winner of 2025-26
– Director
– Assistant Director
– Office Staff
– Crossing Guard
– Handicapped (without a placard)
🚏🛑
🚫 and finally, DO NOT make any illegal U-turns (yes, we see you 😉)

✅ WHAT TO DO: ✅
✔️ You must have your 2025–26 parking pass clearly displayed in your front windshield if you plan to park in the lot (No parking without a permit ⛔️)
✔️ Use the Drop-off Line properly: quick hug, quick goodbye, keep it moving (Kiss & Go! DO NOT get out of your car)💨✌🏻
✔️ You must park legally if you prefer to walk your child in the gates (there are plenty of spots available along the street – be mindful of posted signs and follow all laws) 🚗
✔️ Please ALWAYS follow Ms. Diane (our amazing crossing guard 🙌) and only cross when directed.
✔️ Drive slowly, be courteous, and remember there are LOTS of little feet crossing daily!! Let’s all be safe and cautious out there. 🫶🏾👣

Let’s work together to keep our campus safe, respectful, and smooth-running all year long.
And don’t forget, let’s always Have the ❤️ HEART ❤️ of an Eagle. It starts with us at home by setting the example for our children! 💙🦅
A friendly reminder that all of these are for your own safety especially the children.
Being mindful and courteous about these guidelines will prevent accidents.
Let’s not wait for one to happen to anyone in our community!
