Drop-Off Procedures

Dear Union Community: 
 
To create the safest and most efficient plan to get over 900 students into and out of the building each day, we have made a few minor changes to student drop off and pick up. 

  • The main office doors and the doors in the west alcoves will remain locked in the morning until 7:40. 
  • During student drop off, please pull all the way forward to the door furthest north, on the west side of the building. These doors will open at 7:20 so students can eat breakfast in the cafeteria and socialize with friends before the rest of the building opens at 7:40. 
  • The reason behind this is have all students in the building supervised in the cafeteria, and to create a smoother process in the car lane. 
  • Another small change to ensure student safety is there will be a right turn onlyleaving the parking lot each morning from 7:15-8:00, and 2:45-3:15 each afternoon. As many of you have noticed, turning left onto 8000 S is not only dangerous for cars, but also for our students that walk home. 

 
 
As many parents want to take ‘first day of school’ pictures of their students, we ask that you park in the parking lot and take photos as to not block the flow of traffic in the drop off lane. 
 
While we all adjust to these changes and learn the new routines, please be patient with other parents, students, as well as staff. As always, we appreciate your support and welcome any feedback to help ensure the safety of students and parents during pickup and drop off at Union Middle.
