• First Day of School - Doors open @ 7:40AM, school starts @ 8:10AM

Parent drop off and pick up will enter and exit at our marquee as shown above. Please stay to the right if you are dropping off or picking up. Stay to left if you plan to park in the front of the building.

Student drivers will enter the east side of the buidling and exit the light near the softball field.

Buses will access the campus from the LRMS/LRHS connector drive on the southside of the campus. Please refrain from accessing the west side of campus to allow for buses to run their routes.

In the afternoon, we ask that parents double stack in front of the building leaving the middle lane open. Remember to stay to the right when driving up the front entrance drive if you are picking up. Stay to the left if you need to park in the front.

Student drivers should not access 183 from new CR 258. There is not a traffic light there. If students need to access 183, we ask that they go around the southside of campus off of old CR 258 where there is a protected turn with traffic lights. We will also have traffic lights at the corner of new CR 258 and Legacy Ranch Dr as well as the student parking lot exit.
