Our School Parking Protocols
-
In order to keep children safe, and keep drop-off and pick-up as efficient as possible, our school has adopted these protocols. We ask that all caregivers review and follow the protocols in order to contribute to our safe school culture and demonstrate consideration and respect for all. At the end of the day, the children are watching. Please remember you are modeling to them the necessity of following school rules and showing respect for everyone.
Drop off and pick-up should occur only from the southern entrance of the two circle lots on NW 4th Street. A map has been provided at the bottom of this page. The drop-off/pick-up location is in the white loop. Teachers and staff will be at the gate to pick-up and drop-off your students. Dropping off and picking up in the northern bus drop off lot is strictly prohibited as it is a major safety concern.
Drivers must remain in their vehicles while waiting in the drop-off/pick-up line during prime pick-up and drop-off times. The drop-off/pick-up line is to be used for drop-off and pick-up from:
8:55-9:15 am M-F
3:15-3:30 pm M-F
2:15-2:30 pm ONLY ONE Wednesday Per Month Early DismissalThe staff will help all children to and from their cars during these times. If you need to park, please use the parking lot or park on 4th Street. Do not park in the parent drop-off/pick-up line or in designated handicap spaces.
While in the drop-off/pick-up line, please pull all the way up to the gate entrance to allow cars to get off of the street, but still allow buses to be able to leave. A staff member will escort your child to or from your car. Children should have their things gathered and be ready to unload as soon as the car is on the curb. Please exit as soon as your child is safely strapped into the car to allow traffic to continue to flow.
Thank you for helping to keep all of our children safe and to alleviate traffic as much as possible.
Picking Up Children From School Early: Children are not released directly from the classroom to leave school before dismissal times. You MUST come to the office first and sign out your child. Your child will be sent for and released to you. Please DO NOT check your child out within 15 minutes or less until dismissal.
