BPS has two areas where students can be dropped off each morning, with adults opening doors and helping students out of vehicles. Please note that secondary area opens after buses have completed dropping students off.

• 7:00-7:45 – Front of building
• 7:30-7:45 – Bus porch, side of building, after buses are complete

A few important things to know:

• All cars wishing to join the morning drop off line should enter using the Pennsylvania/Frost Avenue Entrance to campus (back entrance near Little Angels Day Care).
• Buses are on campus from 7:15-7:35 AM. There will be heavy traffic during bus drop offs.
• During heavy traffic times, cars may only use the Templin Avenue Entrance to park for front door drop offs. Do not enter from Templin Avenue to join the car drop off line.If you enter from the Templin Avenue Entrance, you will have to travel toward Pennsylvania Avenue until you can fall behind the cars already in the drop off line facing the front entrance. This allows traffic to flow more smoothly on Templin Ave. It is not safe for the other cars, buses, or staff to make U-turns into the car drop off line.

Some additional ways to help increase the speed and efficiency of our morning drop-off include

1. Make sure students have backpacks, lunch boxes, coats, etc. ready when you pull to the drop off location.
2. Have students sitting on the right side of the car if possible.
3. Pay close attention to traffic; when the front valet is full, continue to the side or back of the building to keep traffic moving.
4. Parents who are walking into school with students please park in the side parking lot by the gym/cafeteria. This keeps valet traffic flowing and keeps pedestrians safe. (Note: If you park your vehicle to let students out, you must escort them to the door. Do not let students walk across parking lot without a parent)

Please be willing to use additional drop-off spots when traffic is heavy. We promise we are going to take care of your children—regardless of where they are dropped off…we love them!
