Student pick-up and drop-off are two very busy times of day at John Adams. In order to keep all families safe (and to limit frustration), please follow these procedures from 8:00-8:45 and 2:30-until all buses are gone.
Doors open at 8:20 a.m. Students will wait outside until 8:20 a.m.
Door 1 – Grade 6
Door 2 – Grade 7
Door 9 – Grade 8
Students then enter the building and go to their classrooms. The main circle/turn around near the main entrance is reserved for buses ONLY before/after school.
If you drive your child to John Adams, refer to the diagram (above) to understand expected traffic patterns. Cars entering/dropping off students should enter the parking lot on the east side of the building in the entrance only and let students out at the curb side of the parking lot next to the building. At the end of day, buses will utilize the curb area on 31st Street all the way to the stop sign on 18th Ave. Handicap parking is available in the front of the John Adams parking lot.
After school, please be aware that other cars are arriving and leaving behind you. Good drop off and pick up areas are marked with a star on the map.
CAUTION. We work diligently to get all students to use the crosswalk. Unfortunately this does not always happen. Be alert to students who may be crossing outside of crosswalks!
