Parent Pick Up

1. K—3 parents will pick up their children on the sidewalk by the playground fence   Someone will greet you there to ensure the right child is with the right parent. 

2. 4—6 parents will stay in cars and pick up their kids in the parent pick-up lane. 

3. All parents will receive placards with their family name on it, so we can easily identify families in cars and call kids.

4. Parents with students in K—3 and 4—6, we will dismiss the younger child with the older child and they will go to the car lane with their sibling.  We will have an adult watching them get to and into the car.

5. On bad weather days, we will dismiss the K—3 parent pick-up from the gym.

6. If transportation changes for the day, you must notify us prior to 3:00 p.m. please email or send a Remind.

7. Day care pick up, etc... We must be notified by email or Remind who is picking up your child on that day! 

8. Please carry ID any time you come to the school, just in case we need to verify identity.
