📢 Parents, We Need Your Help! 🚗👋
To ensure the safety of all students and staff, please only drop off your student in the designated eastbound drop-off lane directly in front of HP Elementary.
🛑 The other two lanes are for through traffic only and must remain clear at all times—even for quick stops.
Reminder:
🏫 New Drop-Off and Pick-Up Procedure – Starting 2025–2026
Beginning with the 2025–2026 school year, all student drop-offs and pick-ups at the front of the school must take place in the eastbound lane directly in front of the building.
🔁 The other two lanes will remain open for through traffic (eastbound and westbound).
🚨 Keeping these lanes clear is critical for emergency access.
📍This change applies only to the front drop-off/pick-up area of HP Elementary.
✅ A diagram has been attached to help you visualize the new procedure.
Thank you for your cooperation and support.
