Circle Drive
The circle drive is a drop off and pick up location only. NO PARKING IS ALLOWED IN THIS LOCATION. It is a flow-through location only. Students should always enter/exit on the passenger side of the vehicle.
Cars
When escorting your child to the building please park in a parking stall. Please emphasize that your child should stop and look both ways before crossing the parking lot. This will ensure the safety of all. Please do not park in the two turning areas. These are marked as No Parking on the asphalt. The area by the dumpsters is the turn area for bus use. The turn area between the gym and office doors is to be used for all other vehicles. If traffic does not pull as far ahead when possible, traffic becomes bottlenecked. You will be asked to move prior to dropping off/picking up your child(ren). Please do not park or idle in the handicap stalls or the striped area between them unless you have a handicap parking plate/tag. Every day these stalls are needed for families to get their children to and from school.
Buses
Students who are transported by the bus company will arrive and depart in the Bus Only zone (west side of the building). These are the only children who should be in the bus area before and after school.
Buses will depart the parking lot along the side of the school closest to the soccer field and follow the service road out to Hwy E. This is for buses only. All other vehicles will enter and leave the parking lot through the main entrance/driveway (to Crystal Lake Rd.).
Children Who Walk to School
Children who walk to school should plan to arrive at Prairie View NO EARLIER THAN 8:25 AM. For student's safety, please instruct them to follow the parking lot safety guidelines and use the crosswalk by the dumpster area.
