    Two easy ways to drop off

    At 8:30 AM drop-off, choose whichever works for your morning. For early drop-off at 7:30 AM in the summer, and for every pick-up during the school year, please park and walk in.

    Quickest

    Curbside drop-off

    1. Drive along the driveway
    2. Pull up in front of the doors
    3. Staff will help your child out of the car
    Walk in together

    Park and walk in

    1. Park in a designated spot or along the grass side of the driveway
    2. Walk your child inside
    Every day, every family

    Keeping arrivals and departures safe

    A few shared habits keep the driveway calm and every child accounted for.

    • Parking and safety

      • Follow the traffic flow
      • Do not park in bus zones
      • Turn off vehicles
      • Never leave children unattended

    • Phones away

      Phones are not permitted during drop-off and pick-up, to support safety and communication.

    • Authorized pick-up

      Only approved individuals may pick up your child. ID may be required.

    • Late pick-up

      • 15 minutes of total grace time per year
      • After that, $2 per minute
      • Chronic lateness may impact enrollment

    • Bus riders

      If your child will be absent, tell both their school and SHED. If a child misses the bus, SHED will retrieve them.
