Items to Remember:

Parents will be allowed to start coming to eat lunch with their child on Sept. 3rd. We have a limited number of seats, so you are required to call the office to reserve a specific date and spot. 501.888.4262
Please try and send all lunch and snacks with your student in the morning rather than bring to the office for us to deliver.

You MUST have your student car tag in order to pick up your child. (Handbook-pg.68)
You can purchase ONE additional car tag in the office for $1.00.
Parents must stay in their vehicle in the carline. We have staff to assist students. When stopped, students should open their car door and have all items ready to get out in the morning. If you have a child safety lock on your door, please ask for help opening the door.
When staff start to close the morning gate at 8am, we will not re-open it. You must check your student in the front office after 8am.
For the afternoon carline, we encourage you to work on your child buckling themselves. If they cannot, please pull up to the front parking lot after they get into your vehicle to buckle them. This helps our carline work more efficiently.
If at all possible, please have your student's car seat on the passenger side. It is safer for staff and students if all students enter and exit the vehicle from the passenger side.
PLEASE be patient with the construction on Chevy Road.

Car Riders

PM Car Line

During PM carline, families will stay in one-lane behind the designated area with sign and cones. You will drive up to our gate when it opens at 3:10pm. Traffic will turn into two-lanes once you pull up to the gate.

How does your child get home in the afternoon?
