Habersham Hall Campus

Arrival (7:40- 7:58 am)

All students should enter through the front door. A faculty or staff member will be there to greet students. Please do not block traffic on Habersham Street or park your car on Perry Lane, which runs adjacent to the building. If there is not a parking spot in front of the school for drop off, you may find a spot on Perry Street

Dismissal (3:05 pm)

Students are picked up in front of the building. There is no aftercare provided for 9th-12th Grade students.

While our historic downtown location provides many advantages, it prevents a traditional car lane. Parents are advised to briefly pull into an on-street parking spot in order to drop off students. Please note that City Ordinances prevent cars from stopping in lanes of traffic, including Perry Lane (on the south side of the building). Due to space and safety issues, parents may not drive into the Faculty Parking lot to drop off students.

Students who drive will need to find parking on the street. Click here to view a map of different parking options. Please note that free parking can be found south of Liberty Street.
