Curbside Drop-off Procedures
● Pull as far forward along the sidewalk as possible but DO NOT pull around other cars in line.
● Please use caution when entering school property. There may be young children in the parking lot.
● Display your assigned number sign in the front passenger visor so it is visible from the school entrance.
● Ensure that your car seat is on the rear passenger side of the vehicle.
● Students are only released on the curb side.
● Parents unbuckle your child if they are unable to do so themselves.
● Staff will open the car door and walk the child into the building.
● For the safety of our preschoolers, they can ONLY be released from their vehicle by staff. Do not let children enter the building by themselves.
Curbside Pick up Procedures
● Display your assigned number sign in the front passenger visor window so it is visible from the school entrance.
● Staff will open the curb side door and assist your child into their seat and close the door. If your child is unable to buckle independently, please follow the listed Buckle Zone procedure.
Important Notes
Parents/guests will not be allowed to accompany their child to the classroom.
Please make every effort to arrive before the drop off/pick up time ends. If you do arrive late, please park and bring your child to the main office. If late arrivals become chronic, we may need to make alternative enrollment plans.
Authorized Pick-Up: If someone other than a guardian or emergency contact is picking up your child, send the preschool office and your teacher an email with the person’s full name and phone number. This new adult should be prepared to show a photo ID.
