PBMS's Drop-Off and Pick-Up Procedures

Posted Date: 08/21/26 (06:31 PM)


Please review PBMS's Drop-Off and Pick-Up Procedures to prepare for Monday.
πŸ“Drop-off and pick-up locations are the same.
πŸ—ΊοΈ Please follow the designated route shown on the graphic for both drop-off and pick-up.
Drop-Off Procedures:Β 
⏰ Doors open at 6:50 a.m.
πŸš— If you arrive before 6:50, please have your child remain in your car until the building is open and staff are available to supervise.
πŸš™ Please use both drop-off lanes to help prevent traffic from backing up onto Highland Drive.
πŸ—ΊοΈ Follow the designated route shown on the graphic.
⬆️ Please pull ALL the way forward to let your student unload. Pulling forward allows as many students as possible to enter the building and keeps traffic moving!
➑️ After dropping off your student, you will be required to turn right when exiting the middle school. This helps keep traffic flowing and prevents congestion on Highland Drive.
πŸ’‘ Pro Tip: Continue all the way to the stop sign before turning to help avoid backing up traffic into the drop-off lane.
Pick-Up Procedures:Β 
πŸš™ Please use both lanes when entering the pick-up line. Once you choose a lane, do not switch lanes, as your student will be looking for you in that specific lane.
🎾 Please wait by the tennis courts until 2:20 p.m. so the front of the building remains clear. At 2:20, security will direct vehicles to begin moving into the loading area.
πŸͺͺ Shortly before dismissal, staff will walk the pick-up line and scan your Kid Account card. This allows your student to be ready and waiting when you pull forward.
πŸ“Œ Please have your Kid Account card easily accessible to help keep the process running smoothly.
➑️ After picking up your student, you will be required to turn right when exiting the middle school. This helps keep traffic flowing and prevents congestion on Highland Drive.
πŸ’‘ Pro Tip: Continue all the way to the stop sign before turning to help avoid backing up traffic into the drop-off lane.
Thank you for your cooperation in keeping our students safe and our traffic flow efficient. We appreciate your support and can't wait to see everyone on Monday!
