Be sure to check our Washington Irving Facebook page and School Website to keep up to date on possible school closures/remote learning. Teachers will be sending devices home each day just in case Dr. Grunewald communicates we are moving to remote learning. In addition, assignments will be posted to SeeSaw and Canvas. Students must be signed into their school account to access these resources. If remote learning is called, your child's teacher will be reaching out via email with an explanation of work, Google Meet times/links, and office hours to answer any questions.
WI Open House & Health Fair
WHAT ABOUT PARKING???
Parking will be a factor since this two hour time frame includes all Washington Irving families. Please note, parents will not be allowed to park in our bus loop. If parking lots are full we ask that you utilize our shuttle bus. Families can park at the Chisholm Creek Baptist Church and catch the Edmond Public School's shuttle bus to Washington Irving.

Frequently Asked Questions
What happens if I forget to put my CAR RIDER PLUS TAG in my car?
You will have to park your car in a parking space, go inside to the office, present your driver’s license for verification to receive a temporary tag, then join the car line.
Can I use the CAR RIDER PLUS TAG to check out my student during regular school hours?
NO, you must present your driver’s license during regular school hours.
Can I show my driver’s license to the duty teacher instead of the CAR RIDER PLUS TAG?
NO, the duty teacher will only dismiss your child if you have the CAR RIDER PLUS TAG.
Can my friend or a grandparent pick up my child from the car line?
Yes, but they will need to have the CAR RIDER PLUS TAG with them to pick up your child. If they do not have the card, they will go to the office and present their driver’s license for a temporary tag, then join the car line. If their name is listed in the parent portal, they will be allowed to leave with your child.
Can my child go home with a friend’s parent?
If the friend’s parent has your child’s CAR RIDER PLUS TAG, then your child will be dismissed with them. If they do not have the CAR RIDER PLUS TAG, they must go to the office and present their driver’s license for verification. If their name is in the parent portal, then your child will be allowed to leave with them.
