Dismissal Procedures

Dear Families,

As we begin a new school, we want to provide you with information about our dismissal protocol. In an effort to limit the number of students waiting in the lobby after 2:25, all students will remain at their grade-level exit locations. 

If you are picking up children from different grade levels, students can wait for you at the dismissal location of the youngest child. Please send a note to your child’s teacher letting them know that you would like them to wait together.

Students will be dismissed from the following locations:

Kindergarten - Front Doors

Grade 1 - Back Doors

Grade 2 - Gym Doors (facing Cowden St.)

Grade 3 - Garage Door (near playground) This door will be closed at 2:25. Students will then be picked up at the back doors near the ramp.

Grade 4 - Garage Door (near playground) This door will be closed at 2:25. Students will then be picked up at the back doors near the ramp.

Grade 5 - Front Doors

We appreciate your patience as we work to improve the dismissal process while ensuring every student gets home safely. Please remember that school ends at 2:20. You must present an ID every day!

Sincerely,

Veterans Memorial Elementary School
