Morning Dropoff

Mrs. Kanute would like to remind parents if you are dropping off on Otis Street, you need to park on the side of the road and let your child out on the sidewalk.  If they are younger, please walk with them to the crosswalk and help them cross safely.  This morning parents were double parking and students were getting out into the road, causing a very unsafe situation.  Thank you for your attention to this important matter.
