All of our calendars combined into one for easy viewing
We are excited to share important updates that will enhance the safety and efficiency of our campus operations.
Security gates are installed on campus. These gates will remain closed during school hours. Parents and visitors must use the call box at the main entrance to be buzzed in by the front office.
This measure ensures controlled access and a secure environment for students and staff.
Gates will automatically open during arrival and dismissal times for smooth traffic flow.
Reminder: All student check-outs end daily at 2:30 p.m.
All driveline traffic will move in one direction to prevent congestion and collisions.
Buse Lane Usage:
During these times, school buses will use Orange Lane.
Parent Lane Usage:
Parents must use Green Lane (closest to the school building) during bus arrival and dismissal.
**Do not use Orange Lane between 7:00 a.m. – 7:30 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. – 2:45 p.m., as it is reserved for buses during these times.**
Parents may pull up to the beginning of the driveline lane in front of the school, just before the bus driver/playground driveway, and wait for students to be dismissed (indicated by the red loading/unloading zone in front of the school).
Parents checking students out early or visiting the front office should enter via the main entrance and turn left into the school parking lot.
Westside Drive is not an access point for driveline. The City of Gretna has placed No Parking signs along Westside Drive and will issue tickets to violators.
Please follow posted signs and avoid stopping in the three designated “Do Not Stop” zones to allow buses to maneuver safely.

Afternoon dismissal will begin at 3:15 p.m. Students are to be picked up by 3:45 p.m.
Students may only remain in the building longer if they are participating in a supervised activity approved by the administration. Please do no check your child out of school “early” after 2:30 p.m. The office staff’s primary duty at this time of day is preparing for a safe dismissal.
Your teacher will indicate when it is time to clean up and gather your things. Once you have packed up your backpack and put on your jacket, you can sit down to wait. When your ride arrives, your name will pop up on the big screen in your classroom. This is your cue to head out to the loading zone. Don’t dawdle! Your ride is driving around the building, and your job is to get to the loading zone at the same time they do. If you need to cross the loading zone, be sure to wait for the crossing guard.
Each family has been assigned a Driveline number and will be issued two tags. Please ensure your Driveline tag is visible either on your rearview mirror or dashboard. Be sure to follow the driving route outlined on the map; please also adhere to the directions of the staff members outside.
If you need Driveline tag(s), visit the front office from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Monday–Friday.
Students are tardy at 8:11 a.m. After that time, parents must park in the parking lot and walk their student into the front office.
When you enter the driveway, an attendant will type your family number into a system. This will trigger your child’s release from class. By the time you drive around the building, your child will meet you at the loading zone. Please pull all the way up to the car in front of you. This will help keep the loading line moving along.
