Arrival, Dismissal & Transportation

ARRIVAL:

Cafeteria doors open at 7:35am. DUE TO NO SUPERVISION, STUDENTS ARE NOT TO BE DROPPED OFF BEFORE 7:35am.  All students will enter through the cafeteria.  All students will be searched each day upon arrival.

MORNING CAR RIDER DROP-OFF:

Starting at 7:35am morning drop-off in the car rider loop will be only the right lane.  The single lane unloading zone begins where the white awning starts.  Please drive forward to the orange cone where a staff member and a School Resource Officer (SRO) are stationed directing cars.  Please do not use the left lane for any reason.

DISMISSAL:

Students will be dismissed by bus number/car rider/walker.  Bus riders will exit at the door to the left of the gym.  Walkers will exit through the locker room hallway doors.  Car riders will exit through the cafeteria.  Students are required to leave campus at dismissal.  There is to be no loitering after school. If students are staying after school for tutoring or club meetings, they are to report there immediately.    

BUSES AND TRANSPORTATION:

The Bus Lot is located on the west side of campus and students depart and board buses in this area.  Students may not change buses due to limited space on buses.  All bus numbers and routes may be viewed online at horrycountyschools.net. Click on the Departments tab and then Transportation.  To ensure a timely dismissal, students are expected to go directly to the car rider line, board their assigned bus, or walk directly home.

CAR RIDERS:

Car riders are dropped off and picked up in the designated car drop-off area in front of the school.   Car riders must be dropped off and picked up from under the front awning only.  Car Riders may only be picked up from the designated area.  Students are not permitted to be picked up in any faculty, staff, or bus parking area.  Students should be picked up promptly after dismissal.  Parents are asked to pull all the way forward before allowing students to enter vehicles.  All car riders are to be picked up by 3:45 pm unless they are attending an after-school activity.

All students are required to leave school property after dismissal unless attending an after-school activity.  If an activity does not begin right after dismissal students must go home and be brought back to school.

Any changes in the afternoon transportation of your student MUST be received in writing before 2:30 PM. After this time, we cannot ensure that your student will be made aware of the change.
