Dismissal Safety Issue
We continue to have parents use the faculty parking lot as a pick up area for their children. This practice puts our children at risk. Please do not use the faculty parking lot as a pick up area.

Come Feast With Your Child!
Please take a moment to read the procedures for eating lunch with your child:
- Parents and guardians wishing to eat lunch with their children will sign up using the appropriate link below.
- Students will eat with their grown-ups in the foyer.
- Adults visiting for lunch must sign in at the office and wait in the foyer for their child to arrive.
- If you are bringing lunch for your child, they will meet you in the foyer instead of going through the lunch line.
- If your child is eating the school lunch, he/she will go through the lunch line first and then meet you in the foyer to eat.
- We have limited seats available per grade level, and grade level lunches are open to parents on different dates and times.
- Parents must secure a slot for lunch in advance. Spaces are limited to a first-come, first-served basis.
If you have any questions, you may contact Jazmin Vega in the office or via email at jvega@garlandisd.net
