Walk-up Arrival and Dismissal:

 Students walking to and from school will enter campus at the designated arrival areas in front of the school.  Due to health and safety requirements, parents may not accompany their child to the classroom.  At the end of the day, please wait for your child near their designated arrival and dismissal area at the front of campus.  

Drive-up Arrival and Dismissal:

 Please follow all directions of staff members during arrival and dismissal as the safety and well-being of our students are very important. Arrival and dismissal are very busy times and people are often in a hurry.  Our goal is to be as quick as possible without sacrificing student and staff safety. To ensure the safety of our students and staff, please do not get out of the car during arrival and dismissal.  If your child needs extra time to load/unload, please park in the parking lot at the front of the building and walk your child across the crosswalk to the front entryway of the building.

When exiting campus on Regatta, you may only turn right.  It is important that you drive slowly and with caution to maintain the safety of our walking families.  Also, be aware of bus traffic.

In order to decrease the traffic congestion, here are a few ways you can help:

• Utilize our transportation services, if you qualify for busing.  Please be sure to check the transportation website, ohsd.net, for more information.
• Walk or bike to school! This is a great opportunity to get to know your neighbors and develop a shared plan for getting to and from school.
  • If you need help developing the best route for your child(ren), please reach out!
• Carpool. If you need to drive, then drive together!
• If you must drive, there is no waiting/parking on campus or on NE Regatta Street.  This is for the safety of our community and to help ensure smooth running of our transportation routes.
• Gates will open to the back of Campus at 3:15 p.m. on Tues, Wed, Thur, and Fri and at 2:15 on Mon.

Arrival:

In order to maintain the safety of students, please move forward as far as possible.  There are several openings in the railings for students to enter through.

Dismissal:

All families will be given a car tag, to place in their car for drive-up dismissal.  When you enter the campus, please have your car tag on the driver-side dash or the driver's window.  Students will be waiting in lines and when their name is called, students will be able to move to the first available colored cone.  This will allow us to ease congestion at pick-up and ensure your child is ready to go.

• If there are changes in the dismissal plans of your child please call the office before 2:30 PM, and 1:30 PM on Mondays to ensure we get the information to classrooms.
• Have your car tag with your student's first and last name visible.
  • For multiple students, write all the first names and then the last name (ex. John and Jane Smith)
  • Please have a card in every car that is authorized to pick your child up.
  • Additional cards are available, please tell your child's teacher or call the office if you need a new one or extra.
• Pull your vehicle up so that the door your child gets into is lined up with the cone they are waiting by.
• Please remain in your vehicle during drop off and pick up.
• Follow the directions of the staff that are directing traffic.  We want to have the process be as safe and quick as possible.
