Thank you, DVS families! Morning drop-off flowed amazingly well today. Your incredible cooperation in using the car-rider queue minimized congestion and kept everyone moving safely!
Quick Afternoon Pro-Tip: Pickup gates are open from 12:05 to 12:45 PM. The biggest rush is right at 12:05, so aiming for the middle-to-later window (around 12:25-12:40 PM) will get you in and out much faster today!

⚠️Pro-Tip: Save Time at Afternoon Pickup!⚠️
Arriving early before dismissal creates the day's longest line. Our queue gates are open from 12:05 PM to 12:45 PM, and the heaviest congestion happens right at the start.
If you want a faster, hassle-free pickup, aim for the middle-to-later part of the window (around 12:25 PM – 12:40 PM). Spreading out our arrival times prevents gridlock, clears the queue much faster, and gets you on your way in a fraction of the time!

Please see the new Car Rider Pro procedures in the video attached!
To ensure a safe and efficient process, please remember these key points:
✅ All traffic will enter through the DVA entrance during pick up and drop off times.
✅ Left turn lane access is modified and limited so enter from the West making a right run if possible.
✅ You only need your car-rider tag for pick-up, not drop-off
✅ Gates will not open until 7:15 am and close at 7:45 in the morning
✅ Avoid peak congestion times by arriving earlier in the morning or later in the afternoon.
✅ Stay off your phone while driving on campus for everyone’s safety.
✅ DO NOT drop off your child on 16th Street or Ave C—this is a moving violation and could result in a ticket.
✅ Follow all posted signs and staff instructions.
