Pick -Up End Of Day Car Line
Reminders and New Information
Thank you everyone for a great first 2 week. The first week or so are always a little slower than normal and I appreciate your patience. Just a few reminders for the end of the day pick up line.
1. No Cars will be allowed to enter the loop directly in the front of the building until after the Pre-school students have dismissed. Once all students have left the front of the building we will allow you to enter.
2. Please do not pull all the way to the corner or wrap the corner from Moorewood to Redwood. This blocks the view and forces car to pull onto incoming traffic in order to cross Redwood.
3. Please be mindful of the neighborhood and DO NOT block the driveways while waiting to pick up students.

PICK UP PROCEDURES
After School Car Line
Redwood Families,
I wanted to take just a moment to review the car line dismissal at the end of the day. We have implemented system and have been making small adjustments along the way to ensure an expedient pick up, while keeping student safety first.
The first Item is the rearview mirror car tag. We are asking each family to print the first and last name of students using a permanent marker on the sign. (See example Below) The signs can be easily stored in a car sun visor and then displayed when you reach the car line. Having the names displayed is necessary in order to pick up your student.
Secondly, the direction and order in which the car line follows is extremely important. Names are being typed into a live document and students are being lined up and brought out in that order. If a car enters (cuts into) the line and has not been accounted for this slows down the entire process as it then becomes necessary to look for the missing student(s) and prohibits the next group from advancing. (See Map on Back)
The car rider line begins in the front of the building, exits the driveway, goes west down Redwood and then turns the corner south on Moorewood.
Once the line is established:
1. Cars SHOULD NOT be entering the car rider line turning left from Redwood.
2. Cars SHOULD NOT come straight (South) from parkwood.
3. Cars SHOULD NOT turn left from Morewood
4. Cars Should Not come (East)across Morewood into the existing line of cars. The line wraps around Morewood; it is not coming from both Redwood and Morewood.
AT NO POINT SHOULD CARS WRAP THE CORNER AND BLOCK THE LINE OF VISION FROM MOOREWOOD TO REDWOOD.
