Morning Drop-Off Safety Reminder

Families, please remember that staff supervision begins at 7:15 a.m. For the safety of all students, children should not be dropped off or left unattended before 7:15 a.m.

Car Riders: Please keep your child in the vehicle until 7:15 a.m. and staff are present to receive students. Students should not exit vehicles early and wait outside the building unattended.

Walk-Up Families: Please walk your child to the front door and remain with them until 7:15 a.m., when staff arrive to receive students. Students should not be left at the front door unattended.

These procedures are in place to ensure that students are supervised and safe from the moment they arrive on campus. Thank you for your partnership in helping us keep our Bullpups safe!

• SGE doors open at 7:15am. The school day begins at 7:40am. The tardy bell rings at 7:45am.

• Students planning to eat breakfast at school should arrive by 7:35am. If your student arrives to school after 7:35am, please be sure he/she eats breakfast at home.

• Visitors are not able to join our students for breakfast.

• Stay in your car! The teachers on duty will assist with the unloading of your student. If you prefer to unload your child, please park in a parking spot and walk your child up to the doors using the crosswalk.

• The only "walk-ups" allowed will be families who are truly walking to school from their home. To ensure your child arrives to the campus safely, please walk your student up to the campus rather than sending him/her to walk alone. The back doors on campus are for bus riders. The front doors are for car riders and walkers.

• Parking on a nearby street to walk your child up to the campus will not be allowed due to a city-school agreement. Our school neighbors appreciate your cooperation!

• If you arrive after the 7:45 bell, you will need to walk your student inside the building and check him/her in. Please do not send the child in alone.

SPECIAL NOTE FOR PreK STUDENTS: All PreK students will report directly to their PreK hallway upon arrival each morning. PreK classes will eat breakfast together at 8am.

New Car Rider Procedure

To help ensure the safety of all students and keep afternoon dismissal running

smoothly, all parents and guardians must display their official school-issued

Car Rider Tag when picking up students.

Car Rider Tags Are Required:

● Please have your Car Rider Tag clearly displayed as you enter the car rider line

each afternoon.

Forgot Your Car Rider Tag?

If you arrive without your Car Rider Tag:

1. You will need to park your vehicle in the parking lot.

2. Visit the front office with your ID to purchase a new Car Rider Tag for $5.30 per

tag.

3. After receiving your new tag, you will need to re-enter the correct car rider line

to pick up your child.

For the safety of our students, we cannot release students through the car rider line

without a valid Car Rider Tag.

Car Rider Tags

● Car rider tags are reusable year to year.

● Notify the office of new siblings attending SGE.

● If you need additional tags, they will need to be purchased in the school office or

online through the school store for $5.30 per tag.

Thank you for your cooperation and partnership in helping us maintain a safe, secure,

and efficient dismissal process for all students.

Nuevo procedimiento para la recogida de alumnos en vehículo

Para garantizar la seguridad de todos los alumnos y asegurar que la salida de la tarde

transcurra sin contratiempos, todos los padres y tutores deben mostrar su tarjeta oficial de

identificación para la recogida en vehículo (proporcionada por la escuela) al recoger a los

estudiantes.

Tarjeta de identificación para su vehículo es requerida:

Por favor, asegúrese de que su tarjeta esté bien visible al incorporarse a la fila de vehículos

cada tarde.

¿Olvidó su tarjeta de identificación?

Si llega sin su tarjeta:

1. Deberá estacionar su vehículo en el aparcamiento.

2. Diríjase a la oficina principal con su identificación para comprar una nueva tarjeta

por un costo de $5.30.

3. Una vez obtenida la nueva tarjeta, deberá incorporarse nuevamente a la fila de

vehículos correspondiente para recoger a su hijo.

Por la seguridad de nuestros alumnos, no podemos entregar a los estudiantes a través de la

fila de vehículos si no se presenta una tarjeta válida.

Tarjetas de identificación para la recogida en vehículo

● Las tarjetas son reutilizables de un año escolar a otro.

● Notifique a la oficina si tiene nuevos hermanos que asistirán a SGE.

● Si necesita etiquetas adicionales, deberá comprarlas en la oficina de la escuela o en

línea a través de la tienda escolar por $5.30 cada una.

Gracias por su colaboración y apoyo para mantener un proceso de salida seguro y eficiente

para todos los alumnos.
