Reminders for Arrival/Dismissal

Below we are sharing a few nuts and bolts reminders for parents – thanks in advance for your help and for sharing these reminders with caregivers/relatives.

Traveling by car
When traveling by car, we ask that you park on the street or pull up on the sidewalk on Walden. Please refrain from using the parking lot on Walden. The parking spots designated for Greene Towne are double stacked and staff attempting to leave may be blocked in.

At Dismissal 
1) At 11:45 and 2:45 dismissals: Please use the MyGTMS dismissal check out function:

• Once you arrive at school to pick up your child, you will click a button on the MyGTMS dashboard under the section titled Pickup Notification with your child’s name (visible only to you): “I am here to pick up: Johnny Appleseed, Jane Appleseed.”
• There’s also a way for you to share the link with a relative/nanny/babysitter who is designated as authorized to pick up. Click “Share” at the top of the section.
• Clicking the button will alert Greene Towne administrators that you are here. Please only click the button when you have arrived – we request/pull children from the classrooms or dismissal area based on the check out list, then we can safely mark children as dismissed once they have left.
• Children may need to clean up/get a diaper change/etc. on their way out the door. We request patience as we move as quickly and safely as possible.

Changing dismissals or reporting absences
Please email all changes of dismissal or report absences to office@gtms.org and be sure to copy your teacher.

Thanks as always for helping us be a safe, productive community!
