Arrival and Dismissal Procedures

We would like to share with you how our arrival and dismissal procedures work at Granite Valley.


Arrival

  • You will form two lines at the back of the parking lot, the lane furthest from the building.

  • We will start exiting students from cars at 8:40am.

  • A staff member will be there to open the car door for each student, say good morning and walk them to the sidewalk.

  • Cars will proceed down the left side of the middle aisle to exit the school.

  • Students will walk along the sidewalk to the doorways. Grades 1-4 go in the main doors which are labeled Door 1 and Door 2. Grades 5-6 go into the far right door, labeled Door 3.

  • There will be lots of staff around to help each student and guide traffic!

Dismissal

  • Two lines will form at the back of the parking lot, the lane furthest from the building.

  • A staff member will come to record the name of your students, usually about the first 30 cars.

  • Car line dismissal starts at approximately 3:05pm, once the busses leave. Cars will slowly merge to form one line in the front circle.

  • Cars will drive to the front circle, stopping at the staff member and cone at the end.

  • Your child will watch and walk to your car staying on the inside of the sidewalk.

  • Please wait until the car in front of you drives way before you exit.

  • There will be lots of staff around to help each student and guide traffic!
