Car Line Expectations:

Carline is a fluid process; meaning it is constantly moving and drivers should anticipate constant movement. Morning drop off begins at 7:30 am. Afternoon pick up begins at 3:20 pm. In order to keep our drop off and pick up moving efficiently, all drivers must adhere to the following expectations:

General Code of Conduct

• Do not park your car in drop off lanes during morning and afternoon carline.
• Only students who are being dropped off may exit the car in drop off lanes.
• Students must exit the car on the side closest to the building.
• Do not drop off students or allow students to exit or enter a car in the center lane of drive thru lanes.
• Stay off cell phones.
• Keep eye contact with those who are directing carline and follow their directions.
  • They see things and know things you don’t.
  • If you choose to pull forward to a pick-up area without being directed to, you run the risk of being redirected to the back of the line.
• Only enter the lines from designated entry points. Do not jump the line.
• Continually pull forward. Do NOT leave gaps in drop off or pick up lanes. Keep moving forward.

Morning Drop Off

During MORNING drop off:

• Cars must pull completely up to the curb.
• Do not park or drop off students along the left hand/driver’s side curb. This is an exit lane.
• Do not exit your car. Staff members on duty will assist your child exiting the car.

Afternoon Pick Up

During afternoon pick up:

• Cars may NOT begin lining up for carline until 3:00 pm. If you arrive earlier and park in this area, you will be asked to move to a designated parking area.
• There is only ONE line on the side of the building for K-4 carline. Stay in that line until you are directed to move into one of the K-4 pick up areas. Do NOT get out of this single line. If you do, you again, run the risk of being redirected to the end of the line. (5^th – 8^th grade students are picked up in the back)
• Cars may not block any entrances to our campus during afternoon pick up. Emergency vehicles must be able to enter these areas at any time. If your car is lined up there, they cannot enter.
• Do not have impromptu conversations with teachers in carline. Instead set up a time to meet.
• Grades k-4, have your grade level sign visible in your front window.
• How do I know where to pick up all of my children? All students in the same carpool will report to the youngest student’s pick up area. For example, I have an 8^th grader, a 4^th grader, and a Kindergarten student to pick up. I will pick up all three students in the Kindergarten pick up area.
  • Please make sure that all of your children know which area to report to.
  • Please make sure any other person who may pick up, knows the grade level of the youngest child.
