  • Anyone entering from Davis Street onto Page Street (north of school) is to use Page Street to do your drop-off, and then exit to the left (south) down Kregel Street and out to Main.  
  • If you are entering from Spruce onto Page Street (south of school), you will use the Circle Drive to do your drop-off.   
  • We are encouraging staff to park on the east side of Page Street on the one-way portion.  This will provide additional parking and help stop the use of the outer lane to drop off or pick up children.
