ARRIVAL PROCEDURES

All Kindergarten students and their siblings will be dropped off at Door L from the back drive. 

  • Please remain in your car and pull up as far as you can.  The teachers or instructional assistants will bring your child to your car.

 

All other students will be dropped off in front of the school. Please pull your car up to Door N. Students will enter at Door N. 

 

If you intend to walk your child up to the school please park your car in the "park and walk zone" on Janice Lane. 

 

Students who arrive late to school will need to be buzzed in at the front door (Door A). 

 

 

DISMISSAL

We will only dismiss Kindergarten students and their siblings out Door L. All other car riders will dismiss through Door N.

 

Car Rider(s)

Parents must stay in their cars and go through the pick‐up line.

 

Students (one from each family) will receive a placard on the first day of school with an assigned number. Place the family placard on your rearview mirror, visible to staff members.

 

Kindergarten students and their siblings exit Door L.

 

All other car riders exit Door N when their number is called.

 

Pull up and follow staff directives.

 

Please do not walk up to Door N to pick up your student

 

Please stay off mobile devices and pay attention to your surroundings.

 

 

Walkers

All Grades K‐5 will exit through Door A.

 

If you park your car in the "park and walk zone" on Janice Lane and walk to the school to meet your child, he/she is considered a walker. You must meet them at Door A.



Bikers

Bikers are to park their bike outside the door of the nearest direction to their home.  

 

For example, if you are biking down White Oak Avenue, you will park your bike at the rack outside Door N.  If you are biking down 35th towards Wilbur Wright, you will park your bike at the bike rack at Door A or Door C (by the gym). Please walk your bike on the sidewalk and while on school grounds. 

 

 

Pickup Patrol

This year, the School Town of Munster is using Pickup Patrol for dismissal changes. All changes to dismissal method, must be submitted in Pickup Patrol. Pickup patrol is only for dismissal changes.  If your child will be absent, arriving late, or needs to be dismissed early, please continue to follow your school's regular attendance procedures by contacting the school office or sending a written note with your child.
