Good Evening Orchard Families,

As the new school year begins tomorrow, August 6th, we are excited to welcome our students and families back on campus. With that excitement comes increased traffic, particularly in parking and drop-off areas, during the first few days. To ensure a smooth and safe arrival and dismissal process, we kindly request your patience and cooperation. Below are a few helpful reminders to streamline the drop-off and pick-up procedures:

🚗 Arrival & Parking Guidelines

To keep everyone safe and traffic flowing:

  • Please be prepared to unload: Have backpacks and materials ready so students can exit quickly. Do not unload in drive-through lanes or unattended zones.

  • Respect all posted signs and traffic rules: Parking is prohibited in crosswalks, drive-thru lanes, and red zones.

🕒 Patience During Peak Times

  • Please be patient during the first couple of weeks; the process will become smoother with consistency.

  • Please follow staff direction at drop-off and pick-up—this is especially important on the first few days.

*If you have not picked up your child’s schedule, you may check in at the tables in front of the office on the first day of school to retrieve the information.
