Special Announcement
F.AVE Welcome - Arrival & Dismissal Information
January 15, 2021
Greetings F.AVE families,
We are looking forward to welcoming your students back to in-person learning Tuesday morning at F.AVE. In order to help you navigate arrival and dismissal, we have two video presentations to share that may help you.
POD Information
If you have been assigned to F.AVE’s POD, then you have received confirmation of that assignment. If not, we will assess our space and attendance week one and determine how we might expand our numbers. If you want to be considered for an afternoon pod, then you can learn more and sign up HERE.

Order of Dismissal
We will be using our dismissal App, PickUp Patrol. Please make sure you have registered and indicated your child’s dismissal plan. All changes to dismissal plans must be made by 10:00 AM through the app. You should have received a welcome email for registration. If not, contact Jessica Wentworth at jwentworth@csdecatur.net.
Bus riders will be dismissed first. We will call by buses. We have 2 buses for F.AVE. Our transportation department has given us the seating charts for each bus. We will load buses according to the chart.
5th grade walkers: Students will be dismissed by classes. If students are waiting for younger 3rd grade siblings, they will need to check in as well with staff and then wait near the F.AVE marquee.
4th grade walkers: Students will be dismissed by classes. If students are waiting for younger 3rd grade siblings, they will need to check in as well with staff and then wait near the F.AVE marquee.
3rd grade walkers: We require adult/sibling pick up for walkers. Using the PickUp Patrol App, our staff member will alert the teacher that you are here for pick up. Students will be dismissed from their class out the front door. This would be the same for older siblings picking up younger 3rd grade siblings.
Car Pool Lane: Please write your child’s first and last name and place in the right side passenger window. This will make it easy to identify who you are here for and eliminate the need for teachers to approach your cars.
Drive into the U-shaped driveway as far as you can. A staff member will use the PickUp Patrol App to alert the teacher to dismiss the student.
You will not be able to make a left turn out of the driveway during dismissal.
F.AVE POD: Students attending the POD will be dismissed to the Multipurpose room after all dismissals. Students will have lunch waiting for them when they arrive.
CAMP SCENE: Students will be dismissed to the bus lane for pick-up when Camp Scene arrives.
Students not picked up by 11:40 will be outside under the front porch waiting for pick up.
