Safety is our primary concern.  Our carpool system is designed to offer safe and efficient dismissal of students who are picked up daily in private vehicles.  Tags with student numbers are issued to parents when they register their children for carpool.  Written authorization must be on file for an adult to pick up any child other than his or her own children.  We ask all parents who drive to school to pick up their children through the carpool line (i.e. – please do not park across the street from the school to pick up your child in a car.)

Due to the increased number of cars in carpool and the back up onto Creedmoor Rd, we have instituted a double lane traffic pattern.  As you enter the parking lot, cars will form two lines that will merge into one as you approach the carpool pick up area.

Morning

Parents may drop off their children at the carpool curb beginning at 8:45 a.m.  We recommend children be dropped off no later than 9:00 a.m. so that they do not have to rush to get to their classroom, unpack, listen to morning announcements at 9:10 a.m. and be prepared for instruction to begin at 9:15 a.m.   Please do not drop your children off prior to 8:45 a.m., as there is no supervision and they will not be permitted to enter the building.

Carpool drop off end at 9:10 AM. If you arrive after 9:10 AM, please park and bring your child to the Front Door as there will no longer be adult supervision in the parking lot.  After 9:15 AM, children are late, and parents need to accompany the children to the Front Door to sign in.

AM- Pre-K students will be dropped off in the carpool lane.

PM- Pre-K students will be picked up in the bus loop. Only Pre-K parents’ cars are allowed in the bus loop.

Afternoon

If you enter the carpool line before 3:40 PM you will need to begin the line at the end of the loading zone. Carpool pick-up begins at 3:45 PM and ends at 4:10 PM. After 4:10 PM please park and come to the Front Door.  Parents arriving late will need to sign out their children. 

Do NOT park on Eddystone Road and have your child “walk” to be picked up in your car. If you come to pick up your child in a car, you must wait in the carpool line.

Guardians will not be permitted to sign out students after 3:15 PM.  At this time, the Front Office begins preparing for dismissal procedures and cannot accommodate student check-outs.
