Drop Off & Pick Up

WILDWOOD ELEMENTARY SCHOOL DROP OFF

**We encourage families to walk to school whenever possible.**

If you drive to school, please adhere to the following guidelines to ensure a safe drop-off:

Wildwood Car Line drop-off… think “village!”

  • Approach the designated drop-off zone (white curb) in front of the school and remain in your car. You may need to wait a bit in a queue. Please be patient. Starting at 8:20, as the cars in front of you drop off children and exit the zone, you will continue to pull forward towards the drop-off POINT. REMEMBER: you must approach the front of the queue (drop-off point) before your child will be escorted from the car.

  • For the safety of all children, do not have your child jump out of the car because you have reached the curb. (I know… tempting.)

  • Make sure your child is ready to exit with all their belongings.

  • Upon reaching the drop-off POINT towards the front of the line (you will not need to get out of the car), an adult will be present to open the door for your child. (Think of this as a valet's greeting!) Your child will exit the car carefully on the passenger side only. 

  • Your child will then head directly to their class gathering point. The adults present will help guide when needed.

  • The supervised gathering points are as follows:

    • All students having breakfast: the courtyard

    • Grades K:  Kindergarten yard by driveway

    • Grades 1,2, and 3: Kindergarten playground by Schoolmates

    • Grades 4 and 5: the back courtyard by the computer lab

  • The drop-off zone is for quick and temporary stops only. Never park your car or leave it unattended in this area.

  • Please note:  No U-Turns are permitted on Wildwood Avenue.  Thank you for helping us keep our students safe.  

  • While your child waits for the bell, they will have the opportunity to socialize with their peers. All play structures are closed during this time.

  • At 8:30, as the bell rings, your child's teacher will greet the class and walk them to class.

 

WILDWOOD ELEMENTARY SCHOOL PICK-UP

Please make a plan with your child for where to meet at dismissal

We encourage families to walk to pick up whenever possible

If you use the drop off/pick up area in front of the school:

Approach the designated drop-off/pick up zone (white curb) in front of the school and remain in your car. You may need to wait a bit in a queue. Please be patient. As the cars in front of you pick up children and exit the zone, you will continue to pull forward towards the pick up POINT. 

You can also park your car and walk to the front of the school to pick up your student(s).
