• No students may be left before that or dropped off in any other location.

• Doors open at 8:45 am.
• All walkers will line up at the main doors to the building. 
• There is no school supervision before that time and students must be supervised by an adult.

• All buses and vans will arrive through entrance B.
• Students will be let off the buses and vans by staff members in the back lot.

• Students are late to school if they arrive after 9:00 a.m.
• If students are late to school, they must be signed into the front office by an adult when arriving.

Step 1: Entering the Car Line
Where to Enter:

• Use O'Grady Place, entrance B, closest to Smallwood Dr.
• Cars MAY NOT enter through entrance A in the afternoon. Cars that pull in that way and block other cars will be asked to move to the end of the line.

 Lining Up:

• After entering, stay close to the left curb. Start forming a line at the barrier. Do not pass other cars for any reason.
• The barrier will be removed by staff around 3:25 PM, at which point cars will begin forming a line in the pick-up circle.
• Cars will be directed when it's time to pull forward in order to ensure room is left for buses to exit.

Step 2: Car Tags

• Keep your car tag visible, on the passenger side, so staff can see it the entire time in the car line.
• Please always be prepared to show ID, especially if you do not have your car tag.

Step 3: Picking Up Students

• Student Line-Up: Students will be lined up in their family group.
• One-Stop Pickup: You will stop once to pick up all children assigned to your car. If a student isn't ready, you will be asked to pull forward and wait.
• Car riders must be picked up in the car line. Parking and walking up to pick up car riders is not allowed. If you prefer to park and walk up to get your child, you can park at Lady Bug Park and designate your child as a walker.

Step 1: Dismissal Location
Where Walkers Go: All walkers will be dismissed to the PreK playground.

Step 2: Pick-Up Area

• Pick-Up From Teachers: If you are picking up your child, you must do so from their teacher at the exits to the walled area of the PreK playground.
• Independent Walkers: If your child is walking home independently, they will be released directly from school.
  • Please note this on their transportation form.

Step 3: Adult Waiting Area

• Where to Wait:
  • Adults picking up students should wait on the paved path, outside the PreK playground walled area.
• Please always be prepared to show ID.
• Do not congregate on the sidewalk, it impedes students and teachers from exiting the building safely.

• If there is a change in your child’s dismissal procedure you must email both the teacher and Mrs. Queen (tmqueen@ccboe.com) to let them know.
• Phone calls are not acceptable.

• Be mindful of children walking near the parking lot.
•  Pay attention to posted speed limits, crosswalks and stop signs to ensure everyone’s safety.
