Arrival and Dismissal

***Our Crossing Guard will be at the light on the corner by 7:35 a.m. (8:45 for Late Start Days). Students who arrive here before that time may be crossing the street without adult supervision

Process
Please be careful as you enter our lot. Be on the lookout for pedestrians and drivers and follow the directions of the adults who are working to ensure students arrive safely at school. In addition, we will have a staff member at the crosswalk by the light, staff members on the sidewalk to greet students, and one to help direct traffic exiting the lot.

We will use two lanes for arrival and dismissal. When you enter the lot, use the lane closest to the building to drop off or pick up your child. Pull up to the first orange cone or the car in front of you. We will help you load and unload your vehicle. Once you are finished loading or unloading, you will use the left lane (the lane furthest from the building to exit the lot. Please be mindful of other cars using that lane to leave the lot. You will use the first exit to make a left onto Brownbert.

To keep the flow of traffic, if you need to exit your car for any reason, we ask that you park in one of the parking spots and make your way to the entrance.

During dismissal, we will call the names of your child (ren) using the Green Car Sign given to you. Please make sure this is displayed in your front passenger-side window. If, throughout the year, you need another one, please let the office know.

We will load 5-6 cars at a time and move them out. So please be patient as we work through this new procedure during the first couple of weeks.

Walkers will use the lower exit door to exit the building and meet their caregivers or walking buddies near the Legacy Garden and Trees.

If we observe the need to change our procedures, we will communicate those changes to you.

** Please refrain from walking your dog on school grounds during arrival and dismissal. This will help us make sure that students with allergies or fears are not impacted (and dogs too). This will also help us with the dismissal traffic on the sidewalks. Thank you for working with us to help keep students, and our furry friends, safe.
