Great work OBE! We have streamlined our afternoon car rider line with your help! We have consistently been able to end our car rider line at 2:45.
Please continue to have your car rider sign visible so we can continue to do a quick afternoon dismissal. Encourage students to enter and exit the vehicle on the passenger side only. Students need to be prepared to exit or enter their vehicles when at the ramp. Remember, the car rider line is a cell phone free zone.
