-Jones Senior High School will remain in the current carpool lane dropping off at the cafeteria entrance.
-Trenton Elementary School will use the traffic loop (previous bus loop) and drop off students directly in front of Trenton Elementary School double doors.
-Families with students attending both schools will use the Trenton Elementary School carpool lane. High School students will walk into Trenton Elementary School with siblings and then walk down the main hallway to the Jones Senior High School wing.
-There will be NO double lines at either carpool line to provide a safer drop off protocol.
