Dismissal

ACE offers staggered dismissal times that coincide with the end of enrichment classes. Families may pick up in carpool line at these designated times of 4:30, 5:15, or 5:45 p.m. after their child's enrichment ends. On Wednesdays, families have an additional choice to pick up at 3:00 p.m. Parents may pick up outside these hours by calling the ACE office at 901-677-2245. Students may also go back to after care (charges will apply).

At the Preschool, parents should pull up to the red awning in the Miss Lee’s lot. Please be prepared to buckle your child in once he or she is brought to you. In Lower School, parents should pull up to the circle driveway. In Middle School, parents should pull up to the awning next to the middle school building on Lemaster Street. An ACE staff member will check your identification, then bring your child to you. Please be prepared to wait in your vehicle for a few minutes, as your child will need time to gather his or her items. Remain in your vehicle unless your child needs assistance getting into the vehicle and buckling. Parents with children in multiple divisions will need to go through each carpool line separately, so please plan accordingly.

Students will only be released to an adult listed on the approved pick-up list. Parents may make arrangements for someone other than those listed to pick up a child by informing the ACE office in writing at ace@gslschool.org. Anyone picking up may be asked to show valid picture identification until the staff become familiar with them.

Parents with students who walk home independently in After School Care should notify the ACE office in writing in advance and include the time when the student should depart campus.
