Before and After School Procedures

Before School and Drop-off Procedures:

It is very important for all families to understand that there is no parking in our school parking lot between the times of 7:30 and 8 am at the beginning of our day, and between 1:30 and 2:45 pm. We have at least 11 buses dropping off and picking up our students. There is ample parking across the street in the larger parking lot of Holy Family Parish. We also have a Stop and Drop program for drop off at the end of the school building that has worked well for all. Cars will line up according to the signs on the street and pull up, one car at a time. When they move up to the final stop sign the child gets out of the car and goes to the end door, where a staff member meets them and lets them in. The student goes up the back stairs to their classroom.
 

Students, grades K-6, who ride the bus to school every day will be dropped off at our front entrance each day. At 1:50 pm each day we
begin to call buses as they come into our parking lot.

 

After School and Pick-up Procedures:

All students who are “walkers” will begin dismissal after all the buses have been dismissed. They with K, 1, and 2 being called first, followed by 3 and 4, and finally 5 and 6 are dismissed.
