DROP-OFF/PICK-UP POLICY
September 1, 2006

Overview:
Our first priority is the safety of the students. Our second priority is a smooth, efficient, flowing, drop-off and pick-up procedure. We are committed to your children's safety and it is important that we all take this matter seriously. We also take seriously our neighbors' needs and will at all times strive to be a good neighbor.

Procedure:

  1. Drop off:The school will open at 8:15 a.m. for student arrival. All students should be in their classrooms no later than 8:25 to be ready for Third Hour, which begins promptly 8:30 a.m. Students arriving to Third Hour after 8:30 will be marked tardy. Afternoon preschool students should arrive between 12:15 and 12:30.
  2.  Pick Up: The school day ends at 11:15 a.m. for the Preschool class and 3:00p.m. for everyone else. Any students not picked up by 3:15 p.m. from their classroom, must be picked up in the office. Continued tardiness for pick up will be subject to fines.
  3. Parents will use the central plaza in front of the church for drop-off and pick-up. Parents will enter the plaza from Hoyt Street and proceed carefully to the parking area in the southwest part of the central plaza.
  4. Parents will escort their children from the parking area to the entrance of the school (Hoyt Street) following the prescribed path.
  5. There cannot be any drop-off or pick-up of students on Glisan or Hoyt streets. In addition, there cannot be any vehicles parked on Glisan or Hoyt streets.  
  6.  Parents will be asked to turnoff their vehicles when parked.
  7. Parents must follow this procedure at all times.
  8. Carpooling is strongly encouraged.
  9. Parents must complete an "Authorization for Pickup" form at the beginning of the school year, or if drop off/pick up arrangements change. Parents must notify the office, 503-641-4600, if anyone other than those authorized by the parents will be picking up (this does not apply to carpools).
  10. For students who transport themselves to and from school (i.e. walking, biking, or public transportation), parents must complete "Parental Release Form".
