Important New School Dismissal Procedures! CAR LINE
With new hours, we need to be creative and flexible with our plans for dismissal. K-6 students will dismiss at 3:00 and Grove Preschool students will dismiss at 3:10. We will continue to have buses pick children up on the east side of the building (Belmont). Our car riders will be picked up on the south side of the building (Haddow). Students who are ever picked up by car will be assigned a family number. Numbers must be displayed in car windows for quick and efficient pick up. Families can pick up their number display in the Puffer office. Students will need to learn their number and it will be attached to their backpack on a tag. There will be 3 car pickup stations on the Haddow drive. A staff member will use a walkie talkie to communicate what numbers should begin lining up at which colored station. Students will then be able to get into cars quickly and safely on the passenger side only. Please see the visuals provided or call the office with any questions.
