Walkers/Bike Riders Entrance: Doors 10, 6, and 4 Bike Racks

Student Drop-off & Pick-up ➢ The car drop-off and pick-up line is the safest and easiest way to drop off car riders. It is located on the west side of the school. Car riders enter the building through the gym doors (Door #11). Please visit this link: http://peterson.ipsd.org/Subpage.aspx?id=432 for more information ➢ Buses use the front circle drive to drop off and pick up students. Before and after school the front circle drive is closed to cars. Cars may not drop off or pick up in the front circle drive. ➢ If your child will be a rider at least one day a week, please fill out the following form located here: http://peterson.ipsd.org/Subpage.aspx?id=1330 Parents will receive an orange sign that lists their last name and a number. Please display this sign on the passenger side visor or dashboard. The student will also receive a tag with number for their backpack. Students’ last names and/or numbers will be called out as parents arrive for pick up. ➢ Please pull all the way up beyond Door #11. This ensures we can load as many cars as possible safely and quickly.

Changes in Dismissal • When there will be a change to your child(ren)’s dismissal because of an afterschool club or other circumstance, please write a note and/or send an email to the teacher, Mrs. Gamboa, and Mrs. Newman. • Please note that teachers will not change a child’s dismissal plan based upon the child’s word. Teachers or the office must receive an email and/or note to change a child’s dismissal plan. • If you need to phone in a change in dismissal, please do so before 2:45. The end of the day can be chaotic in the office and we want to ensure the safe dismissal for all of the students.
