Walkers and bike riders will enter and exit the building through D and E hallways. We follow Depot Order 1710.31A policy regarding age requirements for walkers.

Bikes and scooters should not be ridden on school grounds; students should walk their scooter or bike until off school grounds to ensure the safety of all students.

If younger students accompany parents to pickup, they should remain in close proximity to their guardian so as to ensure that they remain safe near moving vehicles.
