6th Grade Orientation

  • Thursday, August 17
    1 to 3 p.m.

    Carpool Arrival and Dropoff Information

    • Dropoff: All cars should drop off on the blacktop, which is behind the building. Enter through the Clayton or Conway entrances. Staff will be directing cars through our carpool procedures. Please do not drop off in the circle drive unless you arrive after 1 p.m.

    • Pickup: Cars should follow the same route to the blacktop, around and behind the building, and should line up to wait for students. 

    • We ask that parents and students practice these dropoff and pickup procedures, as it will help the first week of school run more smoothly.
