Kiss N Go for Car Riders – Effective September 4, 2019

We have one way in and one way out for our learners. Parents should always enter the parking lot from 16th Street, follow the parking lot to the loop and drop off your child. We call it Kiss N Go, because we want you to give your child a kiss and head to your destination. We will ensure your child receives breakfast and report to class.

Pick-Up N Go for Car Riders - Effective September 3, 2019

We will have faculty members strategically placed in our loop who will radio for your child to exit the gym and proceed to your vehicle. We will appreciate you reminaing in your vehicle for safety reasons. We appreciate your support with this new procedure.
