CAUTION: Drop Off/Pick Up Safety

We have recently received reports of safety concerns regarding students being dropped off and picked up from school.  Please pay extra attention to vehicles and children between 8:45 and 9:10 am and 3:35 and 3:55 pm.

Please make sure your child is entering/exiting the vehicle in our designated zone.  Students should be entering and exiting vehicles from the sidewalk and into the passenger side of the vehicle only. Students SHOULD NOT be getting into or out of vehicles along the yellow marked curve.

There have also been reports of vehicles stopped and/or parked in public crosswalks.  Cars that are trying to maneuver around these cars are unable to see adults and children that are trying to cross the street.

Also, students should NOT be picked up or dropped off directly in front of the building along Olive Street.  Please pull forward past the stop sign, past the first closed driveway, and allow your child to exit the vehicle in the designated drop off zone.

With your support, we can continue to keep all of our students, staff, and OMS families safe.
