FOUR SEASONS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

ARRIVAL/DISMISSAL

School Times:

Arrival is at 7:45am when the bell rings.
Instruction begins at 8:05am. In order to be considered on-time for school, students are expected to be in their classroom when the 8:05 AM bell rings.
Dismissal is at 2:25pm when the bell rings.

Car Riders:

Car riders arriving before 7:45am, go to the Blacktop at the back of the building to wait for the bell.

** IMPORTANT: Please be advised that there is NO adult supervision outside prior to 7:45am and students should not be left unattended by the front (bus loop) doors or on the blacktop.**

At arrival between 7:45-8:00am, car riders enter through the SIDE doors by the parking lot.
At dismissal, car riders wait by the wall facing the parking lot.
During the first weeks of school, your child(ren) will receive a pre-printed paper with their name(s). When picking up, please display this paper on the RIGHT side of the vehicle’s windshield so staff can identify who is being picked up.
The car rider lane is single-file and vehicles should NOT pass other vehicles unless directed by school staff.
Drivers are asked to stay INSIDE their vehicles and move forward as far as possible so more students can safely enter their vehicles at the same time.
For safety reasons, all car riders enter and exit from the RIGHT side of the vehicle by the sidewalk, rather than from the left side into the parking lot.
School staff on duty are available to help car riders with getting into and out of their vehicles.
For younger students requiring adult assistance to buckle/unbuckle or to walk to the door, please park in a parking space rather than use the car rider line.
Please adhere to staff directives and all posted signs including not dropping off or parking in the bus loop during school hours)
Drive slowly and avoid using cell phones during arrival and dismissal.
We appreciate your patience and understanding that student safety is always our first priority.

Walkers:

Walkers arriving before 7:45am go to the BLACKTOP in the back of the building and wait for the bell to enter.

** IMPORTANT: Please be advised that there is NO adult supervision outside prior to 7:45am and students should not be left unattended by the front (bus loop) doors or on the blacktop.**

Walkers arriving between 7:45-8:00 may enter through the side doors by the parking lot or through the front doors in the bus loop.

Your student is expected to walk home. If you are meeting your student on property, you must have a plan/meeting location. Walkers are independent and are not handed off individually to a parent/guardian. EXCEPTION: Pre-K and Kindergarten.

Reminders:

Please keep your dismissal consistent Monday through Friday. For example, if your student is a bus rider, but you are able to pick him/her up one day - consider picking them up at the bus stop versus changing their dismissal procedure. CONSISTENCY IS KEY FOR DISMISSAL!
We cannot accept changes to dismissal after 2:00. We cannot guarantee that we are able to make a change that close to dismissal. And please do not email the teacher for a change in dismissal as they cannot always check their email before dismissal. A change to dismissal must come to the main office staff.
