Carpool Guidelines
We ask for your support in making carpool a safe time on our campus.
- Please follow all carpool guidelines included in the Parent-Student Handbook, Summer Series Carpool information, Fay Flyers, and other official Fay School communications.
- Please display all carpool tags issued by the school whenever entering and driving on campus. Should you need additional tags, please reach out to the Fay House Receptionist at receptionist@thefayschool.org.
- When entering and exiting campus, please use your blinkers and signal early to indicate your intent. This greatly helps our officers direct traffic.
- Follow all directions from officers and staff. Drive cautiously on campus and observe the 10 mph speed limit at all times.
- Stay in your car at all times and allow staff members to assist with your student. If you need to exit your vehicle for any reason while on campus, you must find a parking space. Please do NOT exit while your vehicle is in the carpool line.
- For everyone's safety, the active use of cell phones or other electronic devices while operating a vehicle on campus is strongly discouraged.
Morning Drop Off
- Enter carpool line from North Post Oak Lane. Please use blinkers and indicate your turn early to assist our officers in maintaining a smooth and efficient flow of traffic.
- Please display carpool tags provided by the school at all times when driving on campus.
- Children must be ready to exit cars from the passenger side only upon arrival at unloading zones.
- Parents should move their cars to the frontmost unloading position and avoid gaps in the line.
- Parents must remain in the car at all times during carpool.
- Refrain from discussions with faculty members during drop-off.
- Please watch and listen for instructions from school staff and safety officers.
Afternoon Pickup by Oldest Child's Grade Segment
To minimize the number of pick-up times, siblings should be picked up during the oldest sibling’s carpool time. Example: If a Lower Elementary (LE) student has a sibling in Upper Elementary (UE), the LE student should be picked up during the UE carpool time. The school will provide supervision for siblings waiting for their older sibling's carpool time.
- Enter line from North Post Oak Lane. Please use blinkers and indicate your turn early to assist our officers in maintaining a smooth and efficient flow of traffic.
- Please display carpool tags provided by the school.
Please note: carpool pickup times and instructions do not apply to Extended Day activities. Please consult messaging from the Extended Day office for information regarding pickup logistics.
