If your child is not riding the bus and you plan on dropping them off in the morning and/or picking them up in the afternoon, please see the steps below:

Morning Student Drop-off

Morning arrival begins at 7:45 a.m. and students may be dropped off up until 8:15 a.m. That provides families with a 30 minute window for morning drop-off which should alleviate some of the traffic backup. Students that are dropped off after 8:15 a.m. will be considered tardy. Consistent daily, on-time attendance is crucial to the success of students.


Doors open at 7:45am and close at 8:15am. If you arrive after 8:15 am when the doors are closed,  you MUST park in a parking spot and walk your child into the main office to sign them in. Please DO NOT stop along the driveway entrance or exit and leave your vehicle unattended.

  1. Family vehicles will enter the campus using the driveway in front of the front door. Vehicles will enter using the right entrance of the driveway and exit using the left entrance next to the playground.

  2. Family vehicles will pull forward as far as possible and be to the right of the orange cones.

    • If your child is having trouble getting out of the vehicle or if you want to get out of the car to hug them goodbye, please pull into one of the parking spaces; do not park in the main driveway.

  3. Child(ren) will exit the family vehicle on the right side only to ensure their safety. Adults should not get out of their vehicles when in the drop off zone.

  4. After dropping off your child(ren), family vehicles will merge to the main driveway and come to a complete stop where the front entrance driveway meets the driveway that runs along the playground and around the rear of the school. Be aware of school buses entering the campus!

  5. Family vehicles will exit the campus onto Old County Road after coming to a complete stop. Again, be aware of school buses entering the campus!

  3. Please clearly display the Car Rider Sign with your child's name and approved pick up adults in the vehicle's windshield. Adults should not get out of their vehicles when in the pick-up zone.

  4. After picking up their child(ren), family vehicles will pull forward and come to a complete stop where the front entrance driveway meets the driveway that runs along the playground and around the rear of the school. Be aware of school buses entering the campus!
