🚌Morning Drop-Off Procedures🚗
- Our morning carline opens at 7:15AM this week. Please follow the green route on the map below if your child will be arriving via car in the mornings.
- Car riders should ALWAYS enter and exit cars on the passenger side. This applies to morning drop-off and afternoon pick-up, PreK, and late arrivals.
- The yellow line is our bus lane. Students may not be dropped off in this area.
- PreK students will be dropped off in the front of the building near the PreK entrance (teal line on the map). Parents must walk their child to the doors and wait for your child to be let in at 7:45. Please heed to the instructions of traffic personnel and do not block any lanes.
- Carline closes at 7:55. If you arrive after 8:00, please come to the front of the building, escort your child inside and sign them in with front office staff. Children may not sign themselves in.
- Students who walk to school must live within a 2 mile radius of our campus. Students deemed walkers may not be dropped off via car on or near campus. Any student arriving to PES via car must go through the car rider line.
- Breakfast is served in the classroom each day beginning at 7:45AM. Instruction begins promptly at 8AM. If your child arrives after 8:00, they must be signed in by an adult at the front office. Please ensure your child is at school on time and ready to learn each and every day. Attendance is one of the most vital keys to your child's academic success.
