ARRIVAL AND PICKUP INFORMATION
The speed limit in the parking lot is 5 miles per hour. The school play area is closed to all motor traffic during the school day. Students must remain within the designated play yard at all times unless escorted by an authorized adult. Drop off and pick up procedures, disseminated by the school administration, must be followed at all times. Students should always be dropped off and picked up in the area designated by the school and never in front of the school or rectory on Campus Drive. If a student is dropped off in front of the school, regardless of time, they MUST be escorted to the front office by a parent and/or guardian.
Any individual picking up students from campus must be on the student’s emergency pick up list. These individuals must be over the age of 18. If students are utilizing a car service, parents should notify both the teacher and office. Proper documentation should be shown by the driver upon request at pick up.
During the carline the only exits that should be used from the school building are the exit doors next to the marquee, the fifth grade classrooms, and the eighth grade classrooms.
All students walking to the church parking lot must be accompanied by an adult. No persons are allowed to cross through the line of traffic, with or without children.
Children are not allowed to play in the school yard or on the playground equipment after school unless supervised by a designated school employee. No children may be on the school playground equipment or courts during carline.
With the exception of Pre-Kindergarteners, all children are dismissed from the schoolyard. No children may be picked up or dropped off in front of the school, the rectory or the church.
Parents may choose parking in the lot next to the Church and walking in to pick up their child(ren) at dismissal. Students who participate in after school sports/activities or extended care should report to their adult supervisors as soon as they are dismissed.
Students who are not picked up or taken home by their parents/guardians must have a note on file in the office indicating the name of their carpool driver.
Students who walk, take the city bus, dial-a-ride, or ride to and/or from school must have a note on file in the office indicating permission from their parents/guardians to walk or ride to and/or from school. This must be sent on the first day of each school year. Permission slips are not applicable from school year to school year.
Students must walk their bicycles as soon as they enter the school grounds. Scooters, roller blades, skates, skate boards, and razors are not allowed.
CARLINE
Because drivers are picking up students at the same time, it is imperative to keep a steady flow of traffic through the loading zone by moving as forward as possible in the carline to pick up your child. It is very important to follow the directives of the faculty and to be alert and courteous at all times. If a parent decides to park and walk to pick up his/her child, s/he must park in the church parking lot and walk in the crossing areas, out of the flow of traffic. Cell phone use is not permitted in carline.
