End of the Year Events
Martin Elementary School
Student Bag Pick Up
Time, Date, Location
On Tuesday, May 19th, staff members will be passing back bags containing student belongings from the classroom, final report cards, grade placement letters, certificates, EOY medals, summer activity calendars, tentative school supply lists, and 4th grade recorders from music to parents. (PK students will only receive the final report card and grade placement letters).
The bag pick up will be at different doors of Martin depending on the student grade level (more below).
To reduce the amount of traffic around the school, parents will need to come pick up the bags based on the student's last name:
8-10am - A-G
- 10-12pm - H-M
- 12-2pm - N-T
- 2-4pm - U-Z
If you have any library books, ID tags, or bus tags, please bring those with you to return during pickup.
Pick Up Process
In order to reduce traffic and maintain social distancing guidelines, we have created a pick up process that we will follow on Tuesday.
- Parent will drive up to the school and stop at the Call Area. A staff member will approach the window and the parent will state the student's grade level, teacher, and student's first and last name. The staff member will repeat the information over the walkie to staff members inside the school.
- Parent will then pull to the Pick Up Area and open their trunk (or backseat passenger door). Staff members will then place the student bag in the trunk (or backseat) and close it.
- Parent will then exit the area in the given direction (see map below) in order to avoid getting caught in pick up traffic.
- If you have students in multiple grade levels, start at the lowest grade level area and proceed around the school after each stop.
- If you need to return library books, ID tags, or bus tags, tell the staff member at the Call Area and they can collect them in a bin.
Parent Walk Up
In order to maintain the safety of you as well as our staff, we highly encourage everyone to drive up in a vehicle and avoid walking up in person. However, we understand that this is not possible for everyone.
If you must walk up to collect your child's bag, please walk up to the PK Call Area in front of the school. There will be an area marked for Walk Ups and wait for a staff member to ask for your student information. A staff member will place the bag on a table near by and step away. At that point, you can then proceed to pick up the bag from the table to avoid direct contact. DO NOT pick up the bag directly from the staff member as this will violate social distancing guidelines.
If a line forms, there will be markings on the floor to notate where to stand to wait your turn while staying six feet apart.
