Important WMS PM Car Line Information: The WMS PM car line should not pull in front of the school until 3:00 pm. At that time, cars should pull all the way up to position #1 or as close as you can get. Do not leave large gaps between vehicles. Refrain from passing the car in front of you. Stay in line throughout your time picking your child up. Our goal is safety for all students and staff. You adhering to these guidelines will help ensure that.
