Drop Off & Pick-Up Overview

Main Campus | Drop-Off

• Drivers should approach Pacifica using Monrovia Avenue. From Monrovia Ave. cul-de-sac, turn right into the southernmost driveway of the 1499 Monrovia Avenue campus. Driving down 15th Street and turning left onto Monrovia Avenue is prohibited.
• When entering the parking lot, drivers will form a single file line that wraps around the back of the property.
• Please pull all the way around the building into the marked Drop-Off/Pick-Up Zone as traffic allows. Drivers are not permitted to drop students outside of the Drop-Off/Pick-Up Zone.
• Students may be dropped off along the entire length of the Walking Area, and are only permitted to unload along the passenger side of the vehicle. No trunk unloading is allowed in this zone. Students are to have all school materials, including backpacks and lunches, ready before exiting the vehicle.
• The driver must remain in the vehicle at all times and all driver-side doors are to remain closed.
• Once students are dropped off, drivers will be directed to pull forward and fill in all gaps in the Drop-Off/Pick-Up Zone.

Afternoon Pick-Up

As many Pacifica students are involved in a sport, afternoon pick-up will be naturally staggered.

• Drivers are not permitted to queue up before school is dismissed. Your students will need a few minutes after the end of their last class to collect their belongings, connect with their teachers, and talk with their friends; please allow them this time and do not queue up prior to 2:50 PM.
• Please pre-arrange your pick-up time with your student or carpool group so they are prepared and waiting for you in the Walking Area.
• Pick-up procedures are the same as drop-off; approach from Monrovia Avenue, no left turns from 15th Street.
• To exit the parking lot, proceed straight onto 15th Street as traffic allows. Turning left onto 15th Street is prohibited.

General Precautions:

• Be your student’s best example. Please be courteous and follow all safety guidelines at all times.
• Drop-off is not permitted prior to 7:50 AM. Please arrange a ride for your student prior to 3:30 PM as supervision is not provided unless a school event is taking place.
• Follow all directions from school safety personnel. They are there to help this process run smoothly.
