Our School Parking Protocols
-
In order to keep children safe, and keep drop-off and pick-up as efficient as possible, our school has adopted these protocols. We ask that all parents and guardians review and follow the protocols in order to contribute to our safe school culture and demonstrate consideration and respect for all.
- Drop-off and pick-up should occur only from the front car loop.
- We will utilize Car Signs for the picking up of students. This sign should be displayed on your dashboard. If you do not have your car sign for whatever reason, please park in a parking lot and go into the front office with your ID.
- While in the parent pick-up line, please pull all the way to the front until traffic is stopped. A staff member will escort your child to/from your car. Drivers must remain in their vehicles, unless you decide to park and walk up to retrieve your student from the walk-up gate.
- When the driver arrives at the entrance of the drop-off and pick-up zone, a staff member will radio for the student(s) to be sent out of the Media Center for grades K-3. Grades 4-5 will sit out front on the benches. The staff will help all children get to their cars during these times.
Thank you for helping to keep all of our children safe, and to alleviate traffic as much as possible!
Picking Up Children From School Early: Children are not released directly from the classroom to leave school before dismissal times. You MUST come to the office first and sign out your child.
