Stoppingshort causes traffic back-up on Padua. Please do not stop near the cafeteriato drop off, even when you think other cars are not behind you. It is amazinghow quickly other cars can pull in and cause a back-up. We realize old habitsare hard to change, but we need your cooperation in order for the system towork.Please be sure to post your last name and child’s grade on your right dashboard. This really helps during pick-up.Please be sure to use the cross walk when crossing from the parking lot.We value your cooperation.
