WPS/JIS- ATTENTION PARENTS/GUARDIANS: Please DO NOT park along the front of WPS or along Burrell Ave to pick up your students , use the Parent Pick Up lines. If you have children in both buildings, we will escort WPS students over to JIS and you may pick them all up there. Our number one concern is the safety of all children. Thank you for your cooperation and attention to this matter.
