Hug & Go Procedure
KG-5th Grade Students:
- Students dropped off or picked up by a parent use what we call "Hug & Go."
- Cars enter Marshdale’s Hug & Go lane off of Ocelot Trail road (1)
- Exit Marshdale onto North Turkey Creek from the main Marshdale entrance (2)
- Students in 1st -5th grades (no kinder siblings) are dropped off, and picked up, along the turf field on the playground north of the building (3)
- All kinder parents pick up their kindergartner and siblings on the north side of the peninsula (4)
- If the cue for kinder families is held up, parents are asked to pull around to the south side of the peninsula to help the flow of traffic (5)
- Do not let your student exit your vehicle unless a staff member is present (staff are at Hug & Go from 7:45-7:55am each morning)
- For dismissal, pick up begins at 2:35pm, follow the same pattern
Kindergarten Student Notes:
- Teachers and Paras are on site to walk your child to the car (pick up) or building (drop off)
- Stay in your car at all times
- Have your kindergartner practice buckling and unbuckling their seatbelt
- Seat your child on the passenger side of the vehicle, so they get out/in of the car on the building side only
-PM ONLY: Kinder parents can skip the Ocelot overflow lot and drive up Ocelot and advance to the Kindergarten pick up area.
