There have been changes
to the carline procedures for Abney Elementary and Abney Elementary
Early Childhood Center. Please review the changes for students
of Abney Elementary to ensure the carline process goes smoothly:
• Abney Elementary School (AES) and Abney Elementary Early
Childhood Center (AEECC) will operate 2 separate
carlines during
the 2020-2021 school year.
• If you have students at both schools, you will need
to utilize
both carlines.
•
Car tags will be distributed on your child’s Safe Start Day.
You must display the school issued typewritten car tag on the front
mirror or passenger side dashboard for release. After the Smart
Start days, NO TAG, NO RELEASE without parking, and waiting until
the end of carline for identity verification. Please see the back
of the car tag for instructions for lost or damaged car tags.
• You must enter the carline beginning on Kostmayer
Avenue (this
is no change to the previous procedure)
• We will now have 8 carline stations. When pulling into the car
loop, you will need to proceed all the way to the newly marked
Station1, which will be close to the AES marquee.
• There will be no teachers assigned to each station in the morning
or afternoon, when you have pulled into your station, please place
your car in park.
• A member of the Abney Administration Team will let you know it
is now okay to have your student exit the vehicle or
enter your vehicle.
•
Once your student exits or enters the vehicle, you MUST wait until
the cars in front of you begin to pull forward before you may do
so. You MAY NOT go around other cars to exit the line “out
of order”.
• If you DO NOT have a student at AEECC, you must exit the carline
and go straight, following Slidell Avenue, no exceptions.
• If you have a student who attends AEECC, you will await direction
from the crossing guard to make a right turn
back onto Kostmayer Avenue to enter the AEECC carline, being sure not to block
the driveway for buses to be able to safely enter the bus loop.
• We have experienced an increased number of students who will be
care riders, so I would like to thank you for
your patience as we work through this process.
• AEECC parents, please see the AEECC website for information specific
to carline expectations.
As always, we would like to remind you not
to block the driveways of any homes located
on Kostmayer Avenue.
