Arrival & Dismissal Procedures
Arrival Procedures
-
Morning Drop Off: Car riders enter the West parking lot from the back driveway and Wicks St. Students in grades 4-8 are let out by the Parish Center Doors, grades 1-3 by door #2, and Kindergarten and Preschool by door #24 in the front of the school building. Dropping any students at the office door before 7:20 AM is not permitted. Students who are not in their homeroom by 7:20 AM are considered tardy and must report to the school office for a late check-in.
Dismissal Procedures
Dismissal App Reminder: We are again using the Pikmykid app to manage dismissal grades PK-8. This year the app will also be used for dismissal from the After School Program.
Please be sure that your app is still working on your phone so you are set to announce your arrival beginning on the first day of school. If you need to reinstall the app you will need to call the school office to receive a new QR code to start that process. Please contact the school office if you are in need of new car tags.

Afternoon Pick Up: The car rider dismissal takes place in the west parking lot or gym parking lot. Buses wait in the gym parking lot for Woodland and Grayslake bus riders and depart at 1:50PM. All families will use the PikMyKid App for car rider dismissal, and to report absent children as well as changes to their dismissal routines. Cars will be allowed into the West lot at approximately 1:45. If you arrive early you will be asked to wait in the East Parking Lot so as not to block bus traffic, or park in no parking zones along 120 and the surrounding neighborhoods. Please have your car tags visible on the drivers side window or visor, and announce your arrival using the App. Follow the directions of staff to park and wait for your child to come out to be loaded. We will load cars in groups of 24. No cars will move to dismiss until all 24 are loaded. Please flip up your visor so staff knows that your car is loaded. After pickup proceed down the driveway to the Wicks Street exit.
