Reminders
Hovey Road dismissal is for students being picked up by car only. Any student being dismissed and walking home or to a car, should be picked up from their classroom teacher at the assigned location.
For pickup via car, please form a line up on Hovey Road before the crosswalk near the opening of the fence and remain in your vehicles. If you are leaving your car to pick up your student, they should be dismissed with their teachers for pick-up on foot NOT at Hovey Road.
It is important that family members do not park beyond the crosswalk or in the neighborhood for Hovey Rd. pickup. This area is marked by the RED Xs on the picture below. Safety is our top priority, and lining up in cars before the crosswalk reduces the number of students and adults crossing Hovey Rd and loading in cars during a very busy time.
Once students arrive by the trees, they will be dismissed. Please do not leave your car to retrieve your student. It may require a bit more patience; however, the line moves much more efficiently if everyone stays in their cars.
Additionally, we have received notification from city officials that many cars are being parked idling on Ash Street and Parmenter Road during dismissal. Please be aware of this and reduce the amount of time that cars are idling.
Thank you for your understanding and attention to this matter.
