TRAFFIC SAFETY VOLUNTEERS NEEDED TO KEEP MORNING DROP OFFS SMOOTH

As a reminder to 1st - 5th grade families, teamwork really makes the dream work (or at least helps relieve any drop off nightmares), and we need our caregivers to show up as part of the team for about 20 minutes at least one morning this semester.


Traffic Safety Valet Sign Up is encouraged for our 1st through 5th grade families. For more details, please see our Traffic Safety page.
