We need to review the arrival and dismissal procedures as we approach warmer weather. In addition to teaching and learning, the primary concern at Bethune is keeping students safe in and out of the classroom. We are reviewing these procedures so that we can keep everyone safe during arrival and dismissal.
So that our scholars and families are safe during arrival and dismissal, we have a drive-through pick-up line for families. Parents may use the pick-up line or may park on the avenue and use the sidewalks to drop off or pick up students.
Drive-Through Pick Up Line Procedures
Morning arrival begins at 8:20 AM
Dismissal begins at 3:10 PM
-Stay in a single file for dropping off/picking up students
-Please do not park in the drive-through line.
-Please do not park in the 'passing lane' on the north side (right side) of the turnaround in the front lot.
-Please do not park in the 'passing lane' on the west side of the building.
-Please do not park in the areas with the letter X on the attached map.
