🚨 Morning Drop-Off Safety Reminder 🚨
To ensure the safety of all students during morning arrival, we ask for your cooperation with the following drop-off procedures:
* Use the circle drive only for quick drop-off. Please remain in your vehicle and do not park in the circular drive at any time.
* If you use the parking lot, you must park in a designated stall. Children should exit the vehicle only after you have parked.
* All students walking from the parking lot must use the crosswalk to safely reach the school building.
* Do not use the parking lot as a drive-through drop-off area without parking your vehicle.
Morning drop-off can be chaotic, and student safety is our number one priority. Following these procedures helps keep traffic moving smoothly and, most importantly, keeps our students safe. A photo is attached for your reference about the circle drive and parking stalls.
Thank you for your cooperation and support in keeping our school community safe.

When Jay Bush dropped off his students this morning, he noticed something wasn’t quite right. The crossing guard wasn’t there. Without hesitation, Jay stepped up and made sure our students crossed safely. Moments like this remind us what OG Nation is all about. We are so grateful for people who see a need and act, putting our kids and community first. Thank you, Jay, for being an example of care, service, and heart.
