True or False… A Quiz On PCK Carpool

All PCK students must be dropped off and picked up in one of our designated carpool loading areas unless they have special permission to walk home. True! While the lines might look long, we do get everyone in each window through in 10 minutes, and when students use our designated carpool loops we can keep everyone safe.

If you don’t want to wait in the carpool line, you can just make up your own system that works better for you. False! It is unsafe for students to walk to unsupervised areas to meet their parents. Let’s keep everyone safe!

If you come early for afternoon pick-up and wait in the parking lot, it will actually take longer to get your child. True! Please do not wait in the parking lot and then jump in line once it starts moving. Not only is this discourteous to those who waited in the proper area, but it also slows things down as these cars attempt to merge into the line. Any cars we see doing this will be asked to re-enter the carpool loop at the end of the line, meaning you will spend more time than if you had gotten in line in the correct spot.

Carpool is a great place to catch up on phone calls and texts.
False! In order to keep everyone safe, please give carpool your full attention.
