As  such,  students must  sign  in  to Gator Care and will only be  released with  the  signature of a parent or other  predetermined adult.  Bicycles  Students arriving by bicycle must use  the  racks available at  the east  side of  the  school.  It  is  the  responsibility of  the  student  to ensure her bicycle  is properly  locked and  secured. The  school  cannot accept  responsibility  for  loss of, or damage  to, bicycles  le  on  school property.  Bus Transporta on  Should a  child  require bus  transporta on,  it  is  the parent’s  responsibility  to make arrangements  directly with  the  company of  their  choice.  It  is  impera ve  that parents no fy  the  school of  the  carrier’s name and phone number and  the days  for which  transporta on has been arranged  so  that  children are assigned  to  the  correct bus  company at  the end of  the day. We ask parents  to  ensure  that  the bus driver  ini ally  introduces him/herself  to  the office  staff and  the  classroom  teacher. Bus drivers pick up  the  children by 4 pm, as  is  the  case with all other  children. Parents of  children who normally use  the bus but who,  for any  reason, are not  taking  the bus on a par cular  day must  inform  the  school.  

Please note:  if no fica on  is not  received,  the  child will be  sent home on  the bus as usual.
