Car Rider Procedures

Traffic Pattern Map

For those of you who were here last year, we will maintain the same traffic pattern and process, with students called to the auditorium at 3:45 pm, and the first student out the door around 3:50 pm.

Our final early dismissal through the office will be at 3:20 pm. All other students will be picked up in the car rider line. If you have an early dismissal, please log it in Sapphire and email your classroom teacher.

Please refer to this aerial map of the building and parking lots to see how that traffic pattern moves around the building safely for car riders at morning drop-off and afternoon pick-up. This only applies for drop-off at 9:10 am and pick-up at 3:45 pm.

For kindergarten, AM pick-up is from 11:50 am – 12:00 pm, and PM drop-off is from 12:55 pm – 1:05 pm. Please follow this map. You are required to remain in the side parking lot until the staff member comes out and prompts the line to move to the grass line by the auditorium (spots A, B, C, D, E, F). This will keep Faith Way clear in the morning and afternoon until we are ready for the traffic to move. In the morning and afternoon, there should be no cars on Faith Way by the auditorium entrance until a staff member indicates it is time to do so. 

Car Rider Form

Please log into your Sapphire account and complete the Car Rider Form.  Please email the front office (nwoodrow@pinerichland.org) and your child’s teacher to notify them of any changes. 

How do we know who you are picking up?

Please write your child’s first and last name in very large, bold print on this sign (NOTE: Make a copy of the document if you wish to type your child’s name. Do not request access—it will be denied so that the master copy remains intact) in your car in a place visible to one of our teachers or staff members.

Staff will send the names in order of cars to a staff member who will be in the auditorium organizing the students to come to your vehicles. If you are sending someone other than those listed in Sapphire authorized to pick up your child, you MUST let the office and teacher know as well.

IF you need a car rider sign before the first day and do not have access to a printer, you can stop by the building. Please call the main office before stopping by. We will send them home with students on the first day if needed.
