RMS Parents - Please be reminded that pick up and drop off is in the West parking lot outside of Door 8 or down in the parking spaces on Division Street . Please do not drop off, pick up, or wait in the outside lanes as it clogs traffic and causes a safety issue for your student as they cross traffic. Thank you for your cooperation with this!
