Afternoon Pick-up

Parent Walk Up


The location for students awaiting parent walk-up is the flagpole area facing Greenbriar Drive.


  • All parent pick-up students are seated inside of the building to wait for their parent/caregiver to arrive.

  • Know the full name and grade level of the child you are picking up.

  • There is one gate for parents to enter at dismissal for parent pick-up. It is the small pedestrian gate off of Circle Drive.


Important Note: The after-school care program uses the covered blacktop area at dismissal. Therefore, it is imperative that this area remains off limits. Parents picking up students from after-school care early must report to reception for pick-up. DO NOT attempt to pick-up your child from the blacktop area. This is a violation of after-school care program guidelines and a safety issue.


Carpool


All parents will receive a carpool tag. All cars in the carpool line must have the numbered car tag displayed (regardless of whether you carpool with other families or are just picking up your own child). We ask that children memorize their carpool number as school staff will call out this number (rather than the child’s name) to alert your child that his/her ride has arrived. The pick-up line forms a single lane heading east on Swift Street (from Greenbriar) and turning south onto School Street (see the Afternoon Dismissal Routes and Parking Map). The line begins to form approximately 15 minutes before dismissal time. As a courtesy to your fellow Roberts parents and to ensure our children’s safety, please:


  • Do NOT “skip” the pick-up line by approaching it from the east side of Swift Street. Doing so is inconsiderate to others who have been waiting on Swift Street and it slows down pick-up.

  • Do NOT turn left onto School Street from Addison.

  • Do NOT park your car for any amount of time (whether you remain in the car or not) on School or Swift Streets while the pick-up line is in progress.

  • Remain in your car at all times, including when your child is entering the vehicle. Our faculty and staff are available to assist with students entering the car. Do NOT get out of your car.

  • Refrain from using your cell phone while in the pick-up line.

  • Follow the directions of the staff to move your car as far forward in line as possible before your child enters the car.

  • Have your child use ONLY the curbside doors of your car. Staff are prohibited from loading students on the street side of the car.
