GENERAL TRANSPORTATION INFORMATION
We appreciate all parents complying with our morning and afternoon drop-off/pick-up procedures to ensure safety for students and staff. Parents should not park at the top of the hill to walk their students down to the building in the mornings. If you are choosing to drive your student, we expect that you will follow our drop-off procedures. It is advised that you are in the drop-off line by 7:40 to ensure you are in line before the cones are placed at 7:42/7:43 when there is a break in traffic. Students are expected to be seated in class at 7:45 when instruction begins. This procedure has been in place since the first day of school, yet we are finding the need to remind parents.
Please TURN RIGHT out of the school driveway when you are exiting after morning car drop-off. Left turns are prohibited, as noted by the sign below the stop sign at the intersection. We have had some close calls lately and ask for your cooperation with this request.
It takes several days to be routed to a bus. Any transportation changes involving a bus change need to be given to us with as much notice as possible before the change is to occur.
Daycare Students & Attendance: Please notify your daycare when your child will not be attending in the afternoon. This is for student accountability and safety during the afternoon pick up time.
Students are to ride home on their bus and won't be permitted to ride home on a friends bus.
Please send in a written note when making transportation changes. It is a reminder for the teachers to have the note.
If you need to pick up your student early from school, we ask that you please plan on coming no later than 1:45 and to please keep end of day office dismissals to urgent matters.
MORNING DROP OFF 🚗
You will drive through the parking lot as noted on the map.
NEW as of 10/16/23: Students will be able to exit cars on their own without waiting for a staff member to open the car door. Students can begin unloading once the vehicle passes the fence. Staff and safety patrols will be available to assist students as needed. We are hoping this will expedite the drop-off process just a little bit as we unload over 200 cars each morning.
Students are expected to be in their seats, ready to begin learning at 7:45am. This means the drop off line needs to close prior to this timeframe to ensure students are in their classrooms.
2 large orange cones will be placed in the driveway when there is a break in traffic around 7:42/7:43am.
Once the cones are up, you may not proceed through the drop off line.
You will need to park and walk your child into the building for a tardy slip from the office.
Right turns only when exiting the school drop-off onto Woodlake Village Parkway.
AFTERNOON PICK UP 🚗
Daycare vans will pull through to load and go before we wave parents to come to the loading zone.
Please pull through the loading zone to the next available cone. We will load cars 4 at a time and then move cars so the next 4 can pull up to cones to be loaded .
You are receiving 2 copies of your car-rider number.
You will need to have a car-rider card with you daily as authorization to pick up your child(ren).
Your car-rider card has a number that matches the number your child(ren) have inside the building.
Hang the provided student car-rider card on the rearview mirror of the vehicle using a child’s size hanger. The card should remain visible until your child is loaded into your vehicle. This ensures the safety of your child(ren) and the efficiency of our procedures.
Staff will call for students, students will exit the building out of the cafeteria doors, and staff will ensure students make it to the correct vehicle.
Please remain in your vehicle while staff assists your child(ren) loading into the vehicle. For the safety of our students and staff, please do NOT park and walk up to the sidewalk with your car-rider card to pick up your child(ren).
Parents will then follow the path as noted on the map to exit onto Woodlake Village Parkway.
You may allow another adult to utilize a student car-rider card; which gives that person authorization to pick up your child(ren).
Anyone picking up student(s) must have the car-rider card. If an adult does not have the car-rider card, they will need to park in the parking lot, come into the building, provide proof of identification, and sign the student out. Exceptions will not be made.
Please be aware of pedestrians in the parking lot.
DO NOT pass other cars in line unless a staff member waves you through.
WALKER INFORMATION 🚶🏽
Previously, our walker pick-up location was at Door 5.
You will now meet your student(s) at Door 4.
The star on the map to the right shows the new location.
This will help alleviate congestion in the walker and parent pick-up areas due to the additional learning cottages that have been added to our campus.
Please be sure you bring your walker number so we can ensure each student is safely dismissed to the correct family.
