Elementary Dismissal Procedures Reminder: We appreciate your continued cooperation in making dismissal safe and efficient for everyone. As a reminder: Dismissal typically takes no more than 15 minutes. 10th Street is a one-way street during school hours. Please enter the parking lot through 10th Street or Sycamore Street only. Do not use the exit as an entrance, and please refrain from cutting in line—let’s all be courteous and patient. The curb is the safest and most appropriate place to pick up your child. Thank you to all who consistently follow these procedures. Your support helps us keep our students safe and our traffic flowing smoothly!
