North Miami Elementary School Car Pick Up Line Procedure

General Information 
1. Waiting Area
a. There will be 9 rows that will hold three cars in each row.
b. If there are three vehicles in a row, you will need to pull into the next row that is open and start a
new line.
2. Loading Area
a. Students will be dismissed and loaded in groups of six.
b. Students will walk down the marked walkway next to the loading area spots and stand by a cone
marking their spot. They will enter the cars from the passenger side.
3. Buckling In Area
a. Teach your child to buckle him/herself in without your assistance if possible.
b. If your child needs help getting buckled in, allow them to get in your car and then pull over into
one of the parking spaces before you get out to buckle them in. This will allow those who do not
need to buckle children in the ability to leave without waiting.

Lining Up When You Arrive
1. First six cars to arrive (#1 – 6): Pull into the loading slots A, B, C, D, E and the extra space behind E.
2. Next three cars to arrive (#7 – 9): Pull into Row 1 and stop at the end of the row.
3. Next three cars to arrive (#10 – 12): Pull into Row 2 and stop at the end of the row.
4. This process will continue for rows 3 – 9 until all rows have three cars in them.
5. If all rows are full, wait at the fence until row 1 is allowed to pull into the loading area and then begin
filling in that row.
Loading Process
1. Students remain in the old gym until it is their turn to load.
2. A staff member will log your tag number when you arrive so students are sent outside in the correct order.
Be sure your tag number is visible to make this go quickly.
3. Students will walk along the marked walkway and enter the car on the passenger side.
4. Once the area is empty, rows 1 and 2 will be signaled to pull up and get in line to pick up in the loading
area.
5. Once done, rows 3 and 4 will be signaled to pull up and get in line for the loading area. This will continue
through row 9 systematically.
6. Once row 9 is empty, we will go back to row 1 if there are any new cars that arrived and lined up to start
the process over again until all cars are through the line.
 

Parents picking up students during the school day for appointments must come to the front office. All students must be signed out before being released.
