RED ZONE

(Secondary)

Getting to Campus: Secondary is now using the RED Zone. Every family is asked specifically
to come off Latrobe business park entrance #2 or #3. (Look for the big green sign with the white
number 2 or 3 on it). Our goal is to get our traffic off of Latrobe as much as possible.

 

Picking up ONLY secondary: All drivers with secondary scholars only and not going to 1104
afterwards. Please use business park entrance #4 and proceed straight to the Red Zone entrance.
This is a small number of families and cannot be alloted to the larger group of families with both
elementary and secondary.

For 7th&8th pick up M-TH: We will be waiting at the stop sign located at the 4 way stop of
Investment BLVD and Robert J. Mathews (RJM). We are planning to release cars at
approximately 2:30pm Monday-Thursday to enter the school Driveline. This will happen at
approximately 12:10pm on Fridays. Waiting at the stop sign will not be necessary for AM drop
off.
The Red Zone Only Families will enter on the northwest entrance of 1102. You will be
directed to the 2 lane stacking area. Reference maps.
You will merge back into one lane and this follows the back side of the 1102 building.
Please pull all the way forward before loading your scholar.

 

If you are picking up blue and red in same day:
You will need to enter the ‘driveline number entrance’ located at SW entrance of 1102. This is
the only location numbers are entered. Please make sure you go to the end of the line on Robert
J. Mathews and wait to enter. Once you have entered your driveline number will be taken and
you will split off and merge into the red zone line. The bluezone families will continue towards
the blue zone. (See Maps). If you enter the red zone without going through this entrance your
scholar's number at bluezone will not be called and will dramatically hold up the driveline.

After picking up your 7th or 8th grader, AND you need to go to 1104 for elementary: You
will be directed right out of the 1102 parking lot. Your numbers will have already been entered
for your family key so your elementary scholar will have already come out to the 1104 loading
area. We are not allowing scholar walkers between buildings during the driveline. You will
merge into the blue lane near the 3 way stop in between both buildings. Please reference our blue
lane instructions for details on how to properly pick up your elementary scholars and how to exit.
On Fridays use the blue zone first because secondary scholars all get out after elementary.

Picking up highschool after elementary: Please reference the Blue Zone policy first. After
leaving 1104, instead of exiting onto RJM, you will turn left onto the 1102 northwest entrance
and stack in the back waiting area.

NOTE For Friday (minimum day) secondary: On Fridays/Minimum days all secondary get
out at the same time of 1:00pm. We will not be entering numbers in red but will be opening up
the back for stacking at the same time as elementary(approximately 12:10pm).

Exiting Campus for every family: Exiting campus can happen in a number of ways. We ask
families to please use the exit that is least congested. If one way is backed up, please use the
other way and vice versa. This creates a ‘stabilizing’ effect that releases the pressure of traffic.
Please be considerate of the families behind you. Waiting for the ‘closest’ exit may not always be
the best scenario. Utilize the least congested route, even if it's a longer route to exit.

 

 

BLUE ZONE

(Elementary)

Getting to campus: Elementary is now using Blue Zone. Every family is asked specifically to
come off Latrobe business park entrance #2 or #3. (Look for the big green sign with the white
number 2 or 3 on it). Our goal is to get our traffic off of Latrobe as much as possible.

Dropping off in the morning M-F: After coming to the stop sign on Robert J. Mathews (RJM)
and Investment Blvd. Follow RJM through and come to the next 4 way stop. Follow RJM down
until you reach the southwest entrance to the 1102 parking lot. This is the highschool and middle
school building. Follow the arrows and circle around to the northeast entrance of 1102. You will
follow the road right towards 1104. Drop off has 2 options to choose until 8:13am. Please use the
least congested option. If arriving after 8:15am, your scholar will be considered tardy and
escorted to the cafeteria, to wait until the flag ceremony is over. The parent/guardian will be
required to sign the late scholar form at the vehicle.

Picking up in afternoon M-F: We will be waiting at the stop sign located at the 4 way stop of
Investment BLVD and RJM. We are planning to release cars at approximately 2:15pm
Monday-Thursday & approximately 12:10pm on Fridays to enter the school Driveline. (Waiting
at the stop sign will not be necessary for AM drop off.) Remember: Do not block fire hydrants,
red zones and business entrances. If stopped and waiting, please pull to the far right of the road,
to allow other traffic to proceed.
          When released for pick up at the stop sign of Investment Blvd and RJM, (NO release
necessary for drop off) we will be stacked up on our property for the remainder of the time
before school is out. This is to utilize as much of our property as possible, and get traffic off of
public streets. When released for Elementary, you will follow RJM to the southwest most
entrance of our 1102 property. After taking the left you will divide into two lanes. You will
remain in two lanes until you reach the 4 way stop at the northeast edge of our 1102 property.
Somewhere along this line you will have your numbers entered and be diverted back into 1 lane.
From here, follow the directions to the Loading/Unloading area. (Please refer to maps)
          We stop entering numbers at 3:05pm M-Th and 12:50pm Friday. After this time, all
remaining scholars will come to the driveline and wait, regardless if you have arrived yet.

 

TK/K lane for Pick-up: If you have a TK/K scholar being picked up in the blue zone, it will be because it's PM TK/K or because it's Friday and AM/PM all use the Blue Lane. The loading zone for TK/K and/or carpools and families will be along the East side of the building. One entering the 1104 property for pick-up, you will split into two lanes. Stay to the right lane and this will flow into the east side of the building. If you have carpools and/or other family members being picked up as well, you will have to let them know to wait in this area with the TK/K scholar. This is a special pick up area designated to have a higher staff to scholar ratio as well as less scholar population for a safer waiting zone.

 

When loading and unloading: Do not let there be any open space ahead of your car. You must
pull all the way forward to fill any extra space in the loading zone. This greatly reduces driveline
time. It is your scholars responsibility to be looking for their car.

Exiting Campus for every family: Exiting campus can happen in a number of ways. We ask
families to please use the exit that is least congested. If one way is backed up, please use the
other way and vice versa. This creates a ‘stabilizing’ effect that releases the pressure of traffic.
Please be considerate of the families behind you. Waiting for the ‘closest’ exit may not always be
the best scenario. Utilize the least congested route, even if it's a longer route to exit.

property, then follow ‘Red Zone’ instructions.
