All-Star Families,

As we are all aware, end-of-day traffic on 36^th continues to be less than desirable. Most days we find traffic backed up onto Regal and sometimes onto 37^th. This is a safety concern for students, staff, and drivers alike. While we have no magic wand to fix it, we can offer some considerations to help us alleviate the situation.

• When weather permits, have your child walk or bike to school using our supervised crosswalks at 37^th and Regal, 36^th and Fiske, 35^th and Ray, and 35^th and Freya. 
• Park on 35^th and walk to campus or have your child walk to your car.
•  Park in the northwest corner of the Ferris parking lot and cross at crosswalk at 37^th and Regal.
•  When unable to turn onto 36th, drive forward to 35^th and loop back around (Ray, 37^th, Regal).
• Do not park or drop off/pick up students in the bus turnout on 37^th.
•  Pull up to the loading area on 36^th and allow staff to assist students into cars rather than wave them to your car further down the sidewalk.

Thank you for considering these other options and for working together to keep students, staff, families, and drivers safe.

Thanks for sharing your greatest gift with us…your child!
