Meet Information
UPDATES
Parking:
Due to COVID-19 policies, parking will not be available until 2:45 p.m. No one is allowed on our campus until after school gets out at 2:25 p.m. The parking lots do not clear for parking until 2:45 p.m. The bus lane does not clear for bus parking until 2:40 p.m. Trust me, our neighborhood-locked school creates quite the congestion of traffic on all the surrounding streets. If for some reason you or your athletes arrive early (before 2:45 p.m.), please plan on waiting in the Publix parking lot at 3900 Manatee Ave W until our campus is clear and ready for you to park. Thank you for understanding.
