Manor Pick-Up and Drop-Off Tips:
Cold weather = More car riders avoiding a chilly walk
More cars = Longer wait times
Longer wait times = The need for increased patience & tips for keeping traffic moving efficiently
Tips:
1. Have your child(ren) ready to go with their supplies when you turn into our lane entrance.
2. No phones, no distractions: Pull up when there is room.
3. Our drop off lane is able to fit 10 cars, drop off when you slide into a space. Don't wait until reaching the first spot. 10 cars in and 10 cars out :)
4. Leave yourself time. Don't skip the lane and clog traffic by the front doors. No one's time trumps our students' safety.
Real-life application is helpful in the classroom, so check out some of our visuals attached to our post so we can all contribute to a safer and happier day! After all, "A school divided against itself cannot stand."
P.S. If someone else in your family does the drop-off or pick-up on occasion, share this info with them!
