School safety continues to be a top priority for our district. Orderly drop-off and pick-up procedures are essential to ensuring student, staff, and visitor safety, so please adhere to the following expectations and share them with others who may be picking up or dropping off your child(ren).

Morning Drop-Off: The school doors open at 7:45, please do not drop off before this time. You may park in the main parking lot and walk your child to the front door. It is best if you drop your child off in the loop, exiting on the passenger side only, and let them walk inside on their own. We will have a staff member at Door 1 to welcome and help students. Families may come into the vestibule to say goodbye or may come into the office but will not be permitted beyond this point. Breakfast begins at 7:45 and the school starts at 8:10.

Afternoon Pickup: The end of the day pick-up is incredibly busy and requires patience. When this procedure is followed, it is a smooth process that takes no longer than 10 minutes for all students to be picked up. If you are changing pickup plans for your child, please call the front office by 2:30pm so that we can inform their classroom teacher and get them to the right spot.

● No parking in the pickup line before 3:00pm. Parents who need to pick up their child(ren) early for appointments, delivery drivers, and mentors have difficulty entering and exiting the parking lot when the line begins earlier.

● Stay alert in the car pickup line and pull forward when there is space in front of you.

● Parent pickup students will be escorted to Door 1 at 3:15. Students will line up behind cones and will be dismissed by school staff to their adult. We will allow students to go to their car when you have pulled forward and come to a complete stop in the pickup zone.

● Students should enter the car from the passenger side of the vehicle. Drivers should stay in the vehicle if possible, when in the pickup line. Do not park in the pickup line.

● If you decide to park in a parking spot, please walk to the building to meet your child and escort them back to your car. Please cross the parking lot near the front of the pickup zone. We do not dismiss students by themselves into the parking lot.

● Drivers watch carefully and yield to families who are crossing the parking lot.

● Do not double park in the loop, we need to keep the line moving

● Please do not park in the street, the buses need to get through

● Reminder we are a tobacco free zone, this includes the parking lot

● Have your child ride the bus home if/when possible

● Walkers will be dismissed after the buses have departed
