🚗 Car Rider Drop-Off Times
As we prepare to Make Waves of Greatness this school year, here are the morning car rider drop-off times for each campus in Hancock County School District. ⏰
🚘 Student drivers who drop off siblings at other campuses may apply for a Priority Transportation Permit. This permit allows them to move to the front of the middle school car line to help ensure an on-time arrival at Hancock High.
