Following the traffic pattern will allow for much smoother flow.First day of school pickup for 5th grade will be on the basketball court.Normal afternoon pick up for 5th grade students is at the back gate closest to the Pre-School building, where Paraguay and Cabaletta meet. Please park in the neighborhood, then walk to meet your child.Students who walk home will also be going through the gates on Cabaletta.
