Dropping Off & Picking Up Children

Your child will be safer if you can arrange for him/her to walk back and forth between home and school/bus stop with an adult or buddy. With such limited space we are not able to allow parents and students to arrive early and wait in the school for school to start. When dropping your children off, please do so at their designated student entry/exit door, not through the main entrance. Entry/exit doors for each class will be identified at the beginning of the school year. For safety reasons, the main door is locked at all times. All other doors are locked after normal arrival times. If your child arrives late please take them to the main entry doors at the front of the school and to the office to receive a late pass.

Parking / Staff Parking Lots

Parents are not allowedto use the staff parking lots (front or back) when dropping off or picking up children. All spots in the parking lot are reserved for and fully utilized by school staff during school hours and school sponsored events. The staff parking lots are extremely dangerous places for students. DO NOT DROP OFF OR PICK UP STUDENTS IN THESE AREAS. Please do not park or stop in the school bus zone (from the staff parking lot entrance to the end of the field). Parent parking is available on the street only.

Drop and Go Zone

If you use the Drop and Go Zone on the south or east side of the school, please follow these three steps:

• Travel west on Burgess Drive
• Park Safely on the curb side of the street (not in the middle of the road)
• Drop your children off without exiting your vehicle
• Go - move along quickly, but safely to allow the next vehicle to have a turn.
