• Dismissal Procedures

    Instruction ends at 2:50pm. Dismissal of students occurs at staggered times to facilitate student traffic and ensure safety.

    Please pick up your child on time.   

    Dismissal templates should be used for all walkers, and must be used for all students riding cars. Dismissal templates are available here.

    • Crossing Guards are posted at the corners of Pine Street and Avenue B, and Holly Street and Avenue B.
    • Exit B1 (Front door) is dedicated only to SLC, and bus riders, both HISD and Daycare.
    • SLC parents/caregivers must wait outside at the base of the school steps for children at dismissal.
    • NO bikes or scooters the first week of school (8/28-9/01)
    • Children who walk home without adult supervision must cross the street with a Crossing Guard.
    • When raining, Grade 2 moves to gate G1 and Grade 3 moves to gate G3 exit.
    • Safety patrol students will begin the second week of school.
    • When picking up your child in the carpool area, pull your car all the way up and next to the curb, so safety patrol students are able to open the doors. Students are not allowed to step off the curb
    • DO NOT exit your vehicle at any time. Students should enter and exit from the passenger side only.
    • No cell phone usage in the carpool lane, or any posted school zones. This is Texas State Law.
    • Dismissal Signs are required and should be displayed/visible on the passenger side visor.
    • Dismissal signs should be written in LARGE BLOCK LETTERS on 8 1/2 x 11 paper and include:

    LAST NAME

    FIRST NAME, GRADE #

      • For your convenience, a dismissal template can be found here.
      • Fill out your student(s) information, print it, and place it on the passenger's visor of your vehicle.
      • Please make extra Dismissal sign(s) for additional vehicles/caregivers picking up your student(s).
      • Laminating your sign will help it last longer.
