Please make alternate arrangements for drop off and pick up. The west drop off zone runs along Meadows on the school side of the street from Keats to the north end of campus. The east drop off zone runs along the school side of Peck from Stadium Way to the stop sign at Nelson (formerly the entrance to the Peck Faculty lot). Please leave extra time in your morning and afternoon drop off routines to adjust for the new traffic patterns.

Bring the receipt to Ms. Gardner in the Admin Office to get a new card. New cards will be processed before and after school or during snack and lunch. In addition, if you have money on a food account, please notify Food Service of a lost card so that they can put an alert on your account to deny unauthorized users.
• This week is RED RIBBON WEEK. The purpose of this week is to raise awareness around the use of drugs and alcohol that can assist each of us in making healthy choices. Today, there will be a DJ at lunch, and throughout the week, many reminders about substance abuse will be circulated around campus. Our theme this year is; ‘THEY LIED’ and all will be revealed at the Assembly this coming Friday. - PACE
