Drop-Off and Pick-Up Announcement - Please Read We are so excited to have construction begin on our new AMS campus and all the positives that will come with it, but we will also need to be strategic and patient dealing with impact on drop off and pick up.Traffic and parking on Brighton is increasingly congested, especially during drop-off and pick-up times. Please consider dropping off and picking up your students on Masonic and Key Route to help alleviate the bottleneck during these times. Also, please insist that your child cross the street in a crosswalk.Additionally, the Spokane cul-de-sac behind the school is strictly off limits for drop-off and pick-up. Our district vans and trucks need access through the cul-de-sac, and there is an agreement with neighbors not to use that street. Thank you for your patience and cooperation!
