**IMPORTANT INFORMATION**
Parade Drop Off Information
Parade drop-off will begin at 6:45 PM on the GES playground. Caregivers should remain with their students until a strong staff presence is visible on the playground. In past years, some parents have chosen to walk alongside us in the parade, while others have met us at a stop closer to the end of the route. Either option works. Thank you for helping us keep the parade safe, smooth, and enjoyable for everyone.

Parade Dismissal Information
At the conclusion of the homecoming parade, students will gather at our designated dismissal area. Each grade level will stand together, clearly marked by staff holding large, visible signs. Students must remain with their grade-level group until they are checked out by a staff member. Parents should approach their child’s group to make direct contact with the supervising staff member before a student is released. For safety, students will not be allowed to leave on their own or meet parents at another location. If someone other than a parent is picking up a child, prior written permission must be provided. Staff will remain with students until all children have been dismissed.
