We are fully aware that carpool can be a stressful time, however, our main priority is the safety of our students, teachers, and volunteers. Please give yourself ample time to complete the carpool process, as there are no shortcuts once you are in line.

There is only one entrance and one exit during carpool. We will have teachers and/or volunteers present throughout to expedite the process. Please follow any instructions you receive from those on-duty. Followed well, this process will be smooth and incident-free.

Morning Drop-Off
Morning Drop-Off
Pull up to the farthest available cone. Your student can only exit your vehicle at an attended cone. Do not allow any student to exit your vehicle before you are stopped at a cone and your vehicle is in PARK. For safety, all students must exit only from the passenger/curbside side of the vehicle. Planning and organization will make exiting the vehicle a smooth process and will reduce stress. Please do not exit your vehicle, as there will be someone at each cone to open doors and greet your student. You must turn right (north) onto Frisco St. when exiting.

As in morning drop-off, pull up to the farthest cone. Cones will be labeled with letters. Your student will know the letter of your cone, but you will not. When you arrive at the cone, put your car in PARK. Once your student is in your car and secured with a seat belt/car-seat, please wait for the on-duty attendant to give the signal to exit. Do not attempt to go around the cones or leave before you are signaled to do so.

When you exit the campus, YOU MUST TURN RIGHT (NORTH) ONTO FRISCO ST. Waiting to cross and turn left at the median will cause a backup and could be a safety hazard.

If you have students whose carpools are at different times, you will pick them up during the latest carpool. For instance, if you have a second grade student and a seventh grade student, the second grader will wait and go with the seventh grader. Otherwise, you will go through the carpool line twice. If your student is not ready when their carpool cone is called, you must go through the carpool line again. Remind them to pay attention during carpool!
