Arrival+&+Dismissal

Please help us to make arrival and dismissal time run smoothly!

• Bus drop-offs will be in the front of the building. Please no cars in the bus lane. Most kindergarten students will be bussed to Forge, Northside, or Pine, then shuttled to Lingle with the assistance of a district aide.

• There are two car drop-off/pick-up areas. The kindergarten loop is on the south side of the building. The first through fifth grade loop in on the north side. If you have students in kindergarten and an upper grade, feel free to use the kindergarten drop-off.

• Starting at 8:35am, there will be staff members there to greet your children as they get out of the car. Staff will return to the building at 8:50 with students. If you arrive after that, direct your child to the office entrance. At the end of the day, staff will bring students out to help students back in the car and expedite the process.

• To make drop off and pick-up go as quickly as possible, we ask that parents stay in their cars and move through the pick up lanes. Staff will be there to help your child in and out of your car. Parked cars add to traffic congestion and make the process more difficult.

• On most days (including the first day) after drop-off, students will go to their perspective playgrounds until it is time to go in. On the first day, teachers will meet their class on the playground.

• On inclement weather days, students in grades 1-5 will meet in the gym, and kindergarteners will meet in the large gathering areas outside their classroom.
