There is a parent drop-off and pick-up loop just past the main parking lot as you drive into the school.  This is to be used in the morning for dropping kids off and in the afternoon for picking up students.  You may not leave your car parked and unattended in this area.  In the morning after being dropped off, students are to walk along the fence and into the main entrance of the building.  

Breakfast is free to students and is served from 8am  to 8:15am in our cafeteria.  Students who are eating breakfast with us must arrive and be in line to get their food by 8:10am.  After eating, students will go to the gym where they will line up by teacher name.  Their teacher will pick them up at about 8:20am and walk them to class.

Students coming to us from the daycare will be walked over.  These students will go directly to the cafeteria to eat breakfast or go to the gym if they have already eaten. Students will sit in their lines and wait for their teacher to pick up them up.

Parents may use the parking lot when needing to come into the building.  For safety reasons, please do not use the parking lot as a drop off or pick up area in the morning and afternoon.

After school Routines:
The daycare staff will pick up their students from us at the end of the day and walk them to the center.

Students who walk or ride a bike home will be dismissed through the side doors facing American Lake BLVD.  They are to walk on the sidewalks, use the crosswalks and go directly home.  Bikes are not allowed to be used on school grounds.  Students must walk them off school grounds and walk them across the crosswalks. Bike helmets are required on JBLM.

Students (1st through 5th) who are being picked up by a parent will be walked to the pick-up loop where they will wait until they can safely get in the car.  Please be patient in the loop and be extra vigilant when stopping and going as students will be loading in the area.

Students (1st through 5th) who are meeting a parent to walk home will wait outside near the main entrance of the building for their parent to get them.

Kindergarten students must be picked up at the kindergarten playground near the exterior classroom doors.  Kindergarten teachers will not release students without seeing a parent in person.  Parents may park along Concord and come in through the gate to the playground area  to pick up their student.
