Permanent Parent Pickup Procedures 2020-2021
In an effort to expedite our dismissal procedures, we will establish a list of students who will be permanently placed on the Parent Pickup list for afternoon dismissal. If a student is going to be picked up daily from school, parent(s)/ guardian(s) will complete the Parent Pickup Form, and the student will be placed on a list. Students listed will be
assigned a number and will receive two number cards to be placed in the parent(s)/guardian(s) vehicle or the vehicle of the person that is authorized to pick up the student. The student will be listed as a daily pick up student unless a parent/guardian sends in a note advising the school of other afternoon transportation arrangements.
