Arrival and Dismissal (K-5)
Parent Vehicles will enter the back playground in one line and follow the path around the back of the school. Staff will be in the back of the school at the drop-off/pick-up point(s) to assist with unloading and loading. Students have to exit and load on the driver side of the vehicle. After dropping off and picking up, vehicles will continue along the path at the back of the school and exit through the small parking lot and turn right to exit school grounds. Please drive slowly and cautiously as students will be on the sidewalk where vehicles exit.
 
  • Arrival for students being dropped off begins at 8:30 AM once school staff is present. Students are not to be dropped off until the staff begins supervising drop-off. Students are to exit the vehicle ONLY on the driver side once the vehicle has reached the drop off area and staff signals that students may exit. Vehicles will line up and exit the parking lot in one line. Passing other vehicles in the line is strictly prohibited to ensure the safety of everyone.  Drop-off ends promptly at 8:40 AM; after that time parents/guardians must park their vehicle in a marked parking spot and escort their child through the parking lot all the way to the entrance. Do not park your vehicle in a “no parking area.” Students are not allowed to be dropped off in the parking lot and walk in unattended.
  • Dismissal begins at 3:15 (12:15 on half-days). Vehicles will line up the same way that we line up vehicles in the morning for arrival, but must adhere to the pick-up times below. Do not arrive early because students are on the playground until 3:05 and vehicles will not be permitted to begin lining up until that time. Remain in your vehicles and be prepared for your children to enter the vehicle on the driver side. It is imperative we have your cooperation and you adhere to the procedure.
    • We will load as many vehicles as possible, have those vehicles exit SLOWLY, and then move the next set of vehicles forward.
    • Our staff may assist with opening doors and making sure your child(ren) get in the vehicle, but you will be responsible for making sure they are safely buckled into their seats.
  • We will dismiss 3rd - 5th grade students and their younger siblings (or other students they ride home with) ONLY at 3:16 (12:15 on half-days).
  • We will dismiss kindergarten - 2nd grade students at 3:20 (12:20 on half-days).
 
If you have kindergarten - 2nd grade students without older siblings then your child may not have been dismissed yet. If you are in the line too early, you will be directed to exit and circle back around so we do not hold up the entire line.
 
Students who are independent walkers or walkers met by an adult will continue to exit through doors near the bike rack. We will not allow any students to walk independently unless we have written permission.
 
Changes to dismissal should not occur without a note; we understand that emergencies may arise, but repeated changes become disruptive. Written communication regarding changes by email is preferred [email protected] and to the teacher), but a phone call may be made in emergency situations and must be made prior to 12:00. Dismissal is a busy time and changes that occur, especially late in the day, are sometimes difficult to manage and can be confusing for students and staff.
