Car Riders
Pick up and drop off is in the Little Theater Parking Lot. For families who will be driving students to school, we ask that you pull up as far as possible during drop off to allow a maximum number of cars to drop off. There will be a staff member directing traffic when you arrive.
Please drop off your student after 7:35 AM. The drop off area and access in and out of the campus does slow down as traffic increases closer to 8:00 AM. Please do not drop off students at the Main Office Entrance, unless a student is late to school. We ask for your patience and careful driving on campus.

Today’s book of the day is The Red Ribbon by Lucy Adlington. As 14-year-old Ella begins her first day at work she steps into a world of silks, seams, scissors, pins, hems and trimmings. She is a dressmaker, but this is no ordinary sewing workshop. Ella has joined the seamstresses of Birkenau-Auschwitz. Every dress she makes could mean the difference between life and death. Ella seeks refuge in her work from this reality and from haunting memories. She is faced with painful decisions about how far she is prepared to go to survive. Is her love of clothes and creativity nothing more than collaboration with her captors, or is it a means of staying alive?
