Greetings Parents, Thank you for your cooperation in following the student drop off procedures in the morning upon your child's arrival to school. As the temperature begins to drop, and the weather becomes more unpredictable, we recognize the urge to have your child sit in your vehicles as you wait for the doors to open at 7:50 a.m. Unfortunately, vehicles sitting and idling in the student drop-off lane make it difficult for other vehicles to safely drop off students. In many instances, it compels other drivers to let their children out in the middle of the street, forcing those children to navigate in between cars, in an effort to safely reach the sidewalk. Thus being said......... we humbly request that parents not sit - stand - or idle in the drop off lanes prior to the opening of school at 7:50. We find that arriving at school too early in the cold weather months often causes parents to stop and stand. Please plan your drop off time accordingly and only permit your child to exit the car on the sidewalk side of the vehicle. The CMS Administration
