Car Rider Dismissal Procedures (see picture below)
To ensure a safe and smooth dismissal, please review the following guidelines:
Dismissal begins at 3:55 PM. Car riders are loaded from the cafeteria starting at this time.
Traffic Flow: Cars will enter the side parking lot. Once a line is formed, parents must drive to the end of Cumberland Drive and make a U-turn to join the end of the line.– Do not cut in front of cars already in line.
Forming 2 Lines: Once you enter the parking lot, a staff member will direct you to form two lines.– Once you are directed to a certain lane, do not switch lines.
Pull-Up Procedure: Pull as close as possible to the car in front of you and stop next to your designated cone.– There are 7 color-coded cones to help with organization.
Leaving the Parking Lot- A staff member will be at the front of the 2 lines. Once all 7 students have been loaded into the cars, the staff member will direct you when to begin exiting the parking lot in a single line. Please do not cut through the parking lot, as safety is our biggest priority.
Still Waiting on Your Student?– If all other students at the cones are loaded and your child hasn’t arrived, you will be asked to pull forward next to the gym.– Your child will be brought to your vehicle to help the line keep moving.
Car Rider Tags are Required:
– All vehicles must have a campus-issued 2026-2027 car rider tag. Tag colors change every year.
– Tags can be obtained in the front office. A valid ID is required.
– Place the tag on your rearview mirror for visibility and leave it there until your child is picked up.
No Tag = No Release: If someone attempts to pick up a student without the correct car tag, they will be required to enter the front of the building and present proper identification.
No Walk-Ups: Parents may not walk up to the building to pick up car riders.
