Be Cool In the Parking Lot

It's beautiful outside and it's starting to feel like winter! As we approach the break, I'd like to share a few reminders with you to keep our students and families safe in and around our parking lot and school. I do notice overall some improvement, but there are still some items that continue to be unsafe and/or illegal that I'd like to address. I know it may sound like a broken record, but our kids and their safety are so important. I'm hoping we can all smile, follow traffic laws, and use common courtesy.

1. No dogs are allowed on any RCSD campuses. We have had parents bringing dogs to drop off and pickup and this is not safe for the dogs, adults, or students.
2. The entrance by the front marquis is not an exit (where I stand in the morning). I have noticed many cars exiting there, particularly for Bucket Band dropoff. The exit is down by the preschool exit and marquis.
3. The upper gate closes at 8:45 when the warning bell rings. School starts at 8:50. If you arrive after 8:45, please drive down to the main entrance in front of the school. The main gate remains open for students in all grades. *Do not drop off in the red zone in front of the office. That is a fire lane*
4. No u-turns are allowed in the middle of surrounding streets. It is unsafe and illegal.
5. Please do not drive around cars in the drop off or pickup lines-- we will keep the line moving. Thank you for waiting.
6. If you are dropping off at Adventure Club, and need to get out, you must park. Please do not exit your vehicle in the drop off line.
