Car Dismissal Data Update: Day 3 8/12/24 3:15 - 3:38 (108 cars - 23 minutes) Thank you all for navigating the new two lane procedure yesterday. Here is a graphic that should help everyone know what to do upon arrival. By utilizing two lanes we can avoid the frustrating merger that was happening at the intersection. (The two lane usage is for dismissal only, morning drop-off remains the same procedure.) Please remember that cars should line up starting at 2:30 and not before.

Car Rider Dismissal: We are continuing to refine the car dismissal process with many new staff, students, and parents learning the routine. Please make sure to have the student name card on your dashboard so it is visible to staff on Monday. This new neon green sheet was sent home on Friday with all students. Also, please don’t  line up at the school prior to 2:30.  We know that waiting in the car line can be frustrating. Dismissal starts at 3:15 to help get the flow of traffic going so buses can get moving as they get to school. Arriving at the school closer to 3:30 should shorten your time waiting. Our goal is to have everyone picked up by 3:45 or earlier (<30 minute dismissal).  Dismissal Data for perspective:   First Day Last Year 8/2/23 - 3:07 start and 3:49 finish (136 cars, 42 minutes)  First Day This Year 8/8/24 - 3:16 start and 4:05 finish (135 cars, 49 minutes)     Random Selected Days:      8/24/23 - 3:13 start and 3:36 finish  (89 cars, 23 minutes)     9/25/23 -  3:14 start and 3:36 finish (94 cars, 22 minutes) 2/22/24 - 3:13 start and 3:36 finish (87 cars, 23 minutes)
Happy first week of school everyone! It was great seeing everyone these first few days. Starting on Monday, MLG will be back to our regular arrival and dismissal procedures. Car drop-off is from 8:00 - 8:30 around the back side of the school and buses only drop off out front. Car dismissal will begin at 3:15 each day.

Pick-up: Car pick-up will occur in the same location as last year with some changes. Students will wait just inside the building each day during pick-up and will be called when you enter the loading area (see #1 in the image). This keeps our pick-up routine consistent, not weather dependent, and overall safer for our students. We will open the gate at 3:10 each day, the first car should pull up to the start of the loading area and wait for directions. (See #1) At 3:15 the first car will pull all the way down (see #2), as directed by staff. We will load the cars as students come out, when you have all your students loaded you can exit the line using the left lane (See #3).  If your child has not made it out yet, continue to pull forward until you reach the end of the building (see #4)   Please bear with us the first few days as we get staff as we may be running a bit slower than normal. Thank you for assistance in making this change.
We are so excited to welcome students back TOMORROW, Thursday, August 8th!! #BElieveinCAMDEN #WeAreCamden

weather update
Due to the potential for high winds, heavy rainfall and flooding associated with tropical storm Debby over the next two days, and with guidance from the National Weather Service and Camden Emergency Management Agency, Camden County Schools will delay the opening of the 2024-2025 school year. Camden County Schools will be closed Monday, August 5, 2024, and Tuesday, August 6, 2024, for all staff and students. Weather permitting, teachers will have their final day of preplanning on Wednesday, August 7, 2024, and the first day of school will be Thursday, August 8, 2024. The safety of our students, employees, and their families will always be our first priority.

Additional updates will be provided as they are available. Now is a great time for you to make sure you have a way to be contacted if this incoming weather has a local impact.
