Our first week of the school year is in the books! After a few days of our new drop off/pick up policy at Schneider we have a couple updates. Please pull as far forward in the lane as possible when dropping off a child, this allows more cars to come into the pick up lane.
All parents K-12 are encouraged to drop off their students in the morning using the pick up lane at Schneider Elementary. The after school pick up lane is for K-3 parents only. Thank you for your patience with this transition!
