Drop-off and Pick-up Procedures

Please be patient, especially these first days of school as students and parents become accustomed to our arrival and dismissal procedures. 

For AM Arrival:

Front horseshoe driveway - will be used for TISD buses and daycare vans only. Please do not park along the curb in this area.  Parking spaces are available in this lot and the large adjacent lot on Hankerson.  Several handicapped spaces are located in the horseshoe near the building.

Sixth Street Cafe drive - will be used for Kindergarten and Grade 1 students. Please pull as far forward as you can and have your child exit on the right side of your vehicle. A staff member will be on duty from 7:15 to 8:00 AM.

Baxter Street driveway - will be used for students in Grade 2, 3, 4, and 5. Drivers please form a single line in the right lane, pull up as far forward as you can to make room for many cars. Our students and staff will open car doors on the curb side. Please be sure your students safely exit your vehicle on the curb side. After the drop-off is complete, drivers may use the left lane for passing to allow a free flow of exiting traffic.

Students who walk to school will enter at the nearest doors on their route. Those who ride bicycles will enter nearest to the bicycle racks.

If your children are in more than one grade, please use the driveway assigned for the youngest child.

PLEASE, please, please-
· Never call children to cross traffic lanes · Never allow any child to get out of the car on the left side of your vehicle or from the left lane.
· Never park or leave your car unattended in either driveway. (If you are accompanying your child into the building, please help us with traffic by parking in the parking lots entered from Hankerson.)


3:00 PM Dismissal:

Our goal at dismissal is for all students to leave the campus safely and as quickly as possible.

To speed up dismissal, please display your child's first & last name and grade in large letters on the front right windshield or visor (Paper plates work well.) You do not need to get out of your car.

Staff members will be using hand held radios to communicate the names on the paper plate to teachers who will be supervising students in the building for a safe and orderly dismissal.

Baxter Street drive - Pick up for Gr. 2,3,4,5. Drivers please form a single line in the right lane, pull up as far forward as you can to make room for many cars.

Sixth Street Cafe drive - Form a pick-up line in cafe drive and out onto Sixth Street. K & I students will be accompanied to their vehicle by teachers to assure student safety.

Front horseshoe driveway - Daycare vans and buses only. There is no car pick-up at this location.

IF YOU PICK UP CHILDREN IN MANY GRADES - TELL THEM TO MEET YOU ON THE DRIVEWAY SIDE OF THE YOUNGEST CHILD.


Thank you in advance for your cooperation and patience. The most important priority for all of us is student safety.
