Always have your car sign hanging from the rear-view mirror
Keep the signs in each household vehicle, just in case pick-up plans change
Ask your child's teacher if you need additional signs
If your student doesn't normally get picked up, please notify the office by 3:00 that your child is going to be picked up using the parent lot
