New Drop-Off and Pick-Up Procedure at HP Elementary
Starting with the 2025–2026 school year, all student drop-offs and pick-ups at the front of the elementary school will take place only in the eastbound lane directly in front of the building.
The other two lanes in the parking lot will remain open for through traffic (both eastbound and westbound). For everyone’s safety, please do not stop or park in these lanes—even briefly—as was done in previous years.
This new procedure only applies to the front drop-off and pick-up area of the elementary school.
Keeping the other lanes clear is essential in case emergency vehicles need access to the school. We appreciate your support in helping us keep all students and staff safe.
We’ve attached a diagram to help clarify the new drop-off/pick-up area.
Thank you for your cooperation—we’re excited to welcome your student to a great new school year!
