Graduation Parking is VERY limited on campus, so plan accordingly - we encourage families to walk, bike or carpool.
  • Parking for families with disabled or elderly members will be on the Miranda Street side of the school beginning approximately at 3:30pm, where there will be a shuttle to the field for those who need additional assistance
  • Families can continue to drop off family members who need shuttle assistance to the field once the lot is full.

​As always, plans may fluctuate based on COVID safety protocols from the school and District.  We will do our best to give you updated information as soon as it is available.
