We are returning to Super Friday this week after our break for Labor Day weekend, and I want to share some helpful information regarding pickup line.
While pickup went quicker on week 2, it is still taking quite a while to get everyone out to their cars. We have made more changes and improvements to our process so this week should be even better.
Parents can do their part by:
- Making carpool arrangements ahead of time! Please plan any carpools and let me (Dawn Pruyn 225-324-7758) know by noon on Thursday,. We cannot move students from one line to the other, so carpools may mean that a driver will need to get in two lines. If this applies to you, pick up in MDO line first, then the big kids line. Also, discuss with your child who will be picking them up, little ones get upset when these changes are made without their knowledge. Of course, we can make exceptions for emergencies, just call or text Dawn.
- If you are carpooling with another family EVERY WEEK, we can combine your families into one line and one Carline # for efficiency. Contact Dawn asap if this is your plan.
- DO NOT text your children from your car telling them to come out. We are requiring students to follow our system for their SAFETY, and that means students are brought out in small groups at our direction (3 cars at a time). If your child is not responding, we will ask you to pull into a designated spot to wait so the rest of the line continues to move.
- We will continue to use pre-printed name tags with students end of day area and Carline # until we get things moving smoothly. You can help by reminding your child to listen for their LAST name, and review that info with them if needed (especially for our early elementary students).
- Please continue to bring your patience and be kind with our staff, adults and teens, who are sweating and hustling!
Happy September and see you Friday!
