- Gym parking is reserved for the sport that is in season. Players must obtain a special parking pass from Coach Val.

Softball Fall Ball
Softball Fall Ball will start Monday September 16th. Conditioning and Training will be Monday-Thursday 4:30-6pm. It will last from September through October. All students wanted to participate MUST have an updated physical form and signed parent/player consent forms (documents can be downloaded from the P.K. Yonge website). For more details please contact Softball Head Coach Daryl Mosley
Secondary Traffic Updates
Beginning on the Tuesday after Labor Day, there will be some changes to our traffic procedures, The south gate near the gym will open at 7:30 instead of 8:30, and for those of you who have been getting dropped off early, please encourage your driver to use the south gate for a quicker and less congested drop off experience.
In the afternoon, the gym is a much more efficient place for pick-up. Very few people have been using the 16th Avenue entrance, so the line is moving much faster than the line at 6th Street. Share this secret with your parents.
FINALLY, listen up!
Beginning on Tuesday, no one will be allowed to exit the 6th Street gate on foot. If you plan to walk off campus at the end of the day, you must use the gate by the guard house. This is to prevent the dangerous behavior we have seen… like students dashing through traffic to get to their parents’ illegally parked cars, etc. No more walking through the 6th street gate to meet up with your ride. All walkers must exit on the west side of campus near the gate guard. Please share this information with your families; they will also get a message from Dr. Geiger.
Thanks for your cooperation. We are trying to keep you safe.
Please pause for a moment of silence:
Please stand for the pledge:
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
Have a great day Blue Wave!
