You may only exit or enter a vehicle if it is along the green curb. • Students can walk to the high school, walk home or walk to the elementary school if they have parent permission AND a “walking note” on file in the front office. • If a student does not have a current note on file, he or she may not walk. • Students are not allowed to walk to the high school in order to board their middle school bus. • If students are seen boarding their middle school bus at the HS, disciplinary actions will occur. 8
