SCHOOL DROPOFF & PICKUP
Please help keep students and families safe during drop off and pick up. Drivers using 27th Street (along the front of the school) as their drop off area should:
- Wait in a single-file line once entering 27thstreet – do not pass cars waiting to unload.
- Stay in the driver’s seat, do not exit car.
Students arriving by car should:
- Be packed and ready to exit the car independently
- Exit car on the sidewalk side of the car in the loading zone (not in the circle)
Other ways Lawton families can contribute to a safer morning drop-off for all:
- Arrive on campus at 7:40 to reduce the last-minute surge of cars and people
- Use the morning school bus if your student has a transportation assignment
- Drive slow and focused
- Park on neighborhood streets instead of using the dead-end street in front of the school
- Consider walking or biking to school
Whether dropping off or picking up, do not park in the area around the traffic circle as this prohibits buses from accessing the bus lane in front of the school. This area is clearly marked with no parking signs.
