Remind your children that if we call their name and they do not come to their spot immediately, you will have to circle around and get back in line. If all goes well, we will move to 3:05 p.m. the following week. The ELEMENTARY LINE is the line behind the gym. It is primarily for the K-3 students. We understand that siblings from upper grades may come to this line. That is fine. The MIDDLE SCHOOL LINE is the line behind the high school, which circles the old baseball field. Remember that Middle School and High School do not dismiss until 3:05 p.m. If you are picking up a MS / HS student behind the gym, don't get in line until 3:10 p.m. to allow that student time to get down to our pick-up area. (1) Remember to pull forward as much as you can and close gaps between cars. (2) Students should have backpacks, water bottles, jackets, and all the things - ready to exit the car or load. (3) Hugs and kisses when you leave the house. But always, always say, "I love you." (4) NO PHONES IN THE CAR LINE... PUT THEM DOWN PLEASE.. it is the law.
