CGHS Pick-Up Drop Off

OVERFLOW TRAFFIC PATTERN for PICK-UP

The volume of CGHS student pick-ups has overwhelmed the traffic patterns in place on the CGHS campus. The new stoplight at Pennington and Morgantown worked as it should. But there was not enough room for the line of cars waiting to pick up students. This caused that line to back up onto Morgantown Road, blocking the exit of our school buses. 

If you travel southbound on Morgantown Road, please continue past Pennington to the Travis Road intersection and turn east onto Lakeview Rd. You can then go north on Hornaday Dr. to Pennington Rd. to access student drop-off. Please do not block driveways or traffic on Lakeview/Hornaday. This will give cars more room to stage before backing up onto Morgantown. (See map below.)

STUDENT DROP-OFF AND PICK-UP
Parents dropping off and picking up students from Center Grove High School should enter the high school campus by turning off of Morgantown Road onto Pennington Drive. Once you have turned off of Morgantown Road onto Pennington Dr, traffic will form two lanes prior to the peanut. Parent Drop-off should move to the Left Lane. As you pass the peanut, you will turn left to make your way to the parent drop-off lane at Door #9. This is the only location where students should be dropped off at school.
 

STUDENT PARKING
Students who are entering the student parking lots from Morgantown Road should stay in the Right Lane and should continue straight as you pass the peanut.

STUDENT PARKING LOT (EAST OF FOOTBALL STADIUM)
Once through the peanut, students will then turn north onto Victory Lane, which runs between the school and the football stadium. Students can be dropped off and picked up at the Hall of Excellence (Door #9). Parents will then exit the campus by following Victory Lane to the roundabout at the intersection with Trojan Lane and continue north to Stones Crossing Road.

Please do not drop off or pick up students before or after school at the main entrance, student or staff parking lots, the Honey Grove Daycare, or the Academy building. Doing so will cause additional traffic tie-ups and is unsafe for students. Gates are installed on the north end of the main entrance parking lot and the entrance to the northwest staff parking lot to restrict access to staff members only. There is no through access. Please note: Access to the north student parking lot will be restricted to one-way traffic flowing into the lot until 7:35 a.m.

DURING SCHOOL PICK-UP AND DROP OFF
During the school day: Students who are dropped off and picked up for appointments or late arrivals should use Door #9 where they will check-in with staff at the security vestibule. Parents who need to come in to the building should use the front administrative entrance (Door #1) at the flagpole/electronic sign off of Morgantown Road.

AFTER SCHOOL ACTIVITY DROP-OFF AND PICK-UP
Parents dropping off and picking up students of any age for activities at Center Grove High School must follow the traffic markings around the high school. Traffic is restricted to one direction in front of the Hall of Excellence (see map below).

Tickets will be issued for drivers who violate traffic restrictions.
