October Updates

Arrival 

• Please refrain from making illegal turns or stops on Murfreesboro Pike that can endanger others. 

• We have observed families turning into oncoming traffic on Murfreesboro Pike. We want to remind all families that driving into oncoming traffic to bypass cars waiting to turn into school is both illegal and extremely dangerous. 

• These actions put you, your children, and others at serious risk and could easily result in a severe accident. Please remember that all drivers must follow traffic laws at all times when entering or exiting the school. Law enforcement may ticket or cite drivers who violate these rules if the problem persists. 

• Use the designated car rider line for drop off and pick up. Do not enter through the neighborhood from 7:30 - 8:30am and 2:30 - 4pm. It is one way traffic at these times. 

• Reminder that students are not permitted to exit their vehicles or arrive on campus prior to 7:40am. This poses a safety risk for students as there is no adult supervision prior to 7:40am daily. 

• For families using the sibling line during arrival: We're noticing car are stopping at the flag pole down at the Elementary School in Lane B, and this causes traffic to back up on Murfreesboro Pike. Please pull all the way forward in Lane B when dropping students off so that traffic continues to flow on Murfreesboro Pike. 

Dismissal Changes & Early Dismissal

• Our Operations team begins preparing for dismissal at 2:30pm.  Please call the front office and/or pick up your KIPPster for early dismissal prior to 2:30pm daily. 

• Student IDs: When using the car rider line, ensure you have the student ID displayed.  A paper copy or screen shot will work! If you do not have the student ID, you will be asked to park and enter the front office to provide identification. 

• Students must remain on the sidewalk until all vehicles have come to a stop.
