The safety of our students is a top priority. We all have the responsibility to see that every child is safe. In addition, we need to keep traffic moving to facilitate student arrival and dismissal on time. The following expectations must be followed:

• Drive down Macomb and around the cul-de-sac to drop students off on the school side of the street near the crosswalk.
• Wait for the cars ahead of you to unload before pulling forward. Keep moving forward as cars in front of you leave. Older children can unload further from the crosswalk.
• Do not drop off on the opposite side of the street.
• Do not enter the parking lot to drop off your children. The lot is too small and too many staff cars are damaged.
• Be patient! You are training your child on how to follow the rules.
• If you choose to drop your children off on Robert Bradby Drive, PARK AT OR PAST the basketball courts so that our district buses and vans can park.
• Please note - Everyone entering the building must go through the metal detector and have their bags checked for security purposes. Therefore, ONLY pre-K parents and parents who have business in the main office will be allowed in the building.

PARKING

THE MAIN LOT IS FOR STAFF PARKING ONLY!!!!!! Violators will be towed at the owner’s expense. Parents and visitors have to park in the designated area on the map attached.

Traffic Control -  The safety of the students is the most important goal during drop-off and pick-up.  We all have the responsibility to see that every child is safe.  In addition, we need to keep traffic moving to facilitate student arrival and dismissal in a timely way.

Late Student Pick Up

Overview 

• Purpose: The purpose of these guidelines is to ensure the safety and supervision of students who are not picked up on time after school dismissal or after-school activities. This Hub page is intended to outline clear procedures and communication protocols for school staff. 
• Scope: These guidelines apply to all students within the district and cover procedures following the regular dismissal time and after the conclusion of any school-sponsored activities.

• Late Pickup: Any pickup occurs more than 15 minutes after dismissal or activity conclusion. 
• Authorized Pickup: Individuals designated by the parent/guardian are verified through photo ID, including emergency contacts. 

Responsibilities 

• Principals: Principals are responsible for communicating these procedures to their school community, including parents, guardians, students and staff who support dismissal from school and activities outside the school day. Principals are also responsible for designating staff who have access to contact information for parents, guardians, and emergency contacts, as well as Attendance Logs, to supervise students who are not picked up on time. Finally, Principals are responsible for reviewing repeated incidents each semester and meeting with parents or guardians to address the issue and implement a plan of action.

• Parents/Guardians: Are required to provide and maintain accurate, up-to-date emergency contact information and authorized pickup lists. They are also responsible for adhering to the pickup times set by the school. 

Procedure 

Fifteen minutes after the scheduled dismissal time or scheduled conclusion of the school activity, designated school staff should initiate the late pick-up procedure. Throughout this procedure, the designated staff are responsible for monitoring and supervising students in a safe area, such as the main office.
