Car Rider Dismissal
•Drivers enter the parking lot from Pothouse Road and stay to the right following signs to loop around to the car loop lane.
•Dismissal times for car riders will be staggered according to your child's last name.
•Dismissal will begin at 3:30 and ends at approximately 4:00 p.m.
Parents/Guardians should arrive in the car line during the designated times below.
•Students whose last name ends with A-M will be dismissed from the gym beginning at 3:30
•Students whose last name ends with N-Z will be dismissed from the gym beginning at 3:35
•Students will be arriving to the gym at these designated times. Parents/Guardians should be aware of the dismissal times for their child(ren) and should follow the times accordingly. If a parent/guardian arrives at the incorrect dismissal time, they will be asked to park in a space and return back to the car line at the appropriate time. This is because the student/child will not be in the gym for dismissal until the designated time.
•Please be aware of the staff members on duty. Staff members are working to make sure everyone is safe. Please adhere to their directions and stay attentive while in the car rider line. Parents/Guardians who are driving should not be on their cell phones when picking up their child.
To expedite the dismissal process, we are asking all families to pick up their child and continue through the line quickly. If your child needs assistance buckling his/her seatbelt, please continue through the car line and then pull over to assist your child. This is not a time to chat with teachers and staff on duty or other families in the car line.
•Families who plan to pick their child up by car every day must have a placard that will be provided by the main office
This placard will have a code on it that is assigned to your child(ren).
Display the placard on the passenger side of the dashboard.
Placards will only be provided to students who have indicated that their dismissal routine every day is “car rider”.
•Students who are not everyday car riders will not be given a placard. If you are picking up your child(ren) on occasion, please use Pickup Patrol and be sure to enter who will be picking your child(ren).
Staff members cannot open or close car doors for students. If your children cannot manage the car door independently, please exit your car and help your child into the car.
Drivers should not be on their cell phones during pick up in order to facilitate a safe and speedy dismissal.
Students can only enter a car if the car has reached the sidewalk area. Staff members will direct drivers and students when to enter the car.
Drivers may not pass other cars
