Important Information About the School Day
Students who are car riders may be dropped off between 7:30 AM and 8:00 AM. If your children are in Pre-K through First Grade or Fifth Grade, please drop them off in the back parking lot drop-off area. If your children are in Second through Fourth Grade, please drop them off in the front parking lot drop-off area. Please know that we will have staff members stationed throughout the building to make sure your children get to the correct place once you drop them off. If you have students in middle or high school, please know that they may not catch the bus at Northside.
Breakfast is served each morning. If you want your children to eat breakfast at school, please make sure they arrive with enough time to eat and then make it to class before 8:00 AM.
We will send out a bus number list as soon as we receive it from the Coweta Transportation Department.
Students who will be car riders in the afternoon may be picked up in the same area where they were dropped off in the morning. Pre-K, K, 1st, and 5th graders will be picked up in the back parking lot pick-up zones. 2nd, 3rd, and 4th graders will be picked up in the front parking lot pick up zones. You will receive a number to display in your front window each afternoon. This number will let your children know when you are here so that they can begin walking to the correct pick-up zone. We will evaluate the number of cars in each pick-up area during the first couple of weeks, and we will make adjustments, as needed, to help get as many cars off of the road as possible during dismissal.
Keeping Our Students Safe at School is Our Top Priority
We hope you understand the reasons for our strict procedures and will help us by adhering to them throughout the year. There is nothing more important to all of us than the safety of our precious children.
