Attention, Alba families!
The back parking lot is being prepared for paving, so all traffic will be routed through the front lot of the school until further notice.

Morning Car Drop-Off Procedures:
• As you enter the front parking lot, take a left and then take the first right into the row facing the school.
• Please do not let students out of the car in the first row. We will direct additional cars into the next row, facing the flagpoles.
• Students will be released from the second line. This process will allow our buses to enter and park safely without interfering with car rider traffic.
• Be sure to allow a few extra minutes for drop off this week while everyone adjusts to this revised traffic pattern. Also, be aware of the personnel who will be in the parking lot to help direct traffic.

Your patience and cooperation are appreciated as we work through these adjustments while managing the ongoing roofing work and paving the back parking lot.
Thank you for your continued support and for helping us keep our students and staff safe.
It’s always a great day to be a Shark!
