SCHOOL DROP OFF AND PICK UP.
Flow of Traffic:
A flow of traffic will be created by cars entering Holland ISD from Travis St. onto Barbara Hill Dr. Two lanes will be formed once you reach the new gym. The left lane will be for drop off and pickup of Elementary students that do not have a middle school sibling. The right lane will be for student pickup/drop off of Middle school students and their siblings.
Morning Drop Off:
Enter Holland ISD from Travis Street onto Barbara Hill Dr. and follow road around toward new gym and to
large parking lot. School personnel will supervise the children until the teachers pick up their classes at
7:55am. Elementary students’ parents should go left and drop off in front of the Cafeteria and exit left of the
Middle school building. All students will be dropped off and parents will not come into the cafeteria.
After School Pick Up:
Elementary pick up will be the same as morning Drop Off. The teachers will ensure that your child makes it
safely to your car each afternoon. Elementary students with a middle school sibling will be escorted to the middle school. Please let us know if you need your child at the middle school instead of in the Elementary pick up line.
During football season, students will continue to be picked at the normal place after the pep rally.
BUS TRANSPORTATION. All students will be required to read and sign a Transportation Behavior Plan. Students riding the bus will be escorted to his/her appropriate bus for the ride home. Bus students will be loaded and unloaded east of the gym in order to avoid congestion.
Please note that unless a note or phone call is received, all bus students will be taken to his/her designated areas. With their interest in mind, and to avoid confusion or complications, elementary bus students will not be allowed to walk home with another student or board another bus unless we receive written permis
