Hello Cardinals!
Click here to see this week's Thankful Thursday (ThT) newsletter. Also, please note there will be no late fees applied in August due to the delay in our upload as we continue to work with Blackbaud Tuition Management to update or correct any issues with tuition payment setup.
Please review the information and image below regarding our one way morning drop off lane. As always, student safety is our first priority. Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns.
Green arrow is where drop off or pick up parking is available. Students are only dropped off from this area in the morning.
Yellow arrow designates the one lane (one way) drive through area.
Red section is where parking is only for families with children at the child care center.
East of the 3rd crosswalk (to the right of the red section) along both sides of the street is also available parking for any families.
We appreciate your continued support and patience!
