Carline Procedures

Please take a moment to review the updated Carline information with your family to ensure the safety of all our students and staff. We strive to keep the lines moving as quickly and safely as possible. Please note, that all students must be dropped off and picked up in Carline by a vehicle. At this time, parent walk-ups are not permitted during AM or PM Carlines.
