Kiss & Ride is a designated loop for parents to drop off or pick up children before and after school. The designated times are 8:30 am - 8:50 am and 3:30 pm -3:50 pm. 

A visual overview of the route can be found here.

Procedures: 

Please follow the new pattern that now circles the perimeter of our parking lot.

Number System. We have implemented a number system. Each child/family will be assigned a number. Parents will receive a decal that should be visible on the rearview mirror. Students will receive a number tag with the corresponding number to be worn on their backpack.

For Kiss and Ride to function properly, parents must follow these procedures:
