Morning Drop Off If you are walking your student into school in the morning we would encourage you to consider the drop off lane. A bit of independence in the second part of the year is a good thing. And, it’s also safer with fewer folks walking among the vehicles. If you do walk your student in, crossing at the front of church is a good option.
