Transportation

With three separate campuses, we often have unique transportation needs for our students to travel between campuses.  Morning bus transportation between our campuses is available for a yearly fee. Afternoon buses are available at no cost from our Downtown Campus to Whitney Bank; however, there is an annual fee to ride the Downtown Campus to Sugar Mill Pond Campus bus.  All students must sign up ahead of time to ride any of our buses. The signup form will be included in back-to-school forms in late July.

Student Drivers

Students with valid licenses may drive to school, after-­school events, or weekend school events. Responsible driving is expected at all times. Seniors, faculty, and visitors are to park in the main parking lot. All other students must park in the gym parking lot. Students may not be in the parking lot or go to their cars during the school day without the school office’s express permission. Violations of driving/parking rules may lead to the loss of campus driving privileges.
 
For the safety of all, cell phone use is prohibited when dropping off or picking up your child.

Parent Drop-off & Pick-up

Each campus has specific carpool routes and protocol for morning drop off and afternoon pickup. Please refer to the resource section on your Blackbaud account for campus specifics.

When it comes to our children, one of the most important gifts we can provide for them is opportunity. It not only prepares them for their future but also gives them the independence to discover and define who they are: who they want to be. Our faculty and staff focus on developing the whole child, with a curriculum designed to teach lifelong learning skills.
