Arrival

Our students may enter the building starting at 7:15 am.  Cars delivering students line up in the lane in front of the school. Daycare buses also arrive in the front. Buses deliver students to the back bus port.

We ask that car riders remain in their cars until the 7:15 bell rings.     Parents, please have your child depart from the passenger side of the car only.  We will have staff on the sidewalk to assist students exiting from the cars.

The Tardy Bell rings at 7:50 AM. All students arriving by car after 7:50 must be accompanied by a parent or caregiver and walked into the front office to receive a Tardy Slip.

Dismissal begins at 2:20 PM. Students who must be dismissed early must be signed out before 1:45 to avoid confusion at dismissal time.

Change of Dismissal

08/04/2025-08/13/2025- Any changes in your child’s transportation should be sent in writing to the teacher no later than the morning of the change. 

Emergency transportation changes can only be made through email by the enrolling adult. The email must include the student’s name, grade level and homeroom teacher and be sent to aretha.brooks@cobbk12 and diane.letts@cobbk12.org. 

A phone call to the front office (770-819-2387) must be made after the email was sent to ensure it was received.

New Dismissal System- Hendricks Elementary School will beginning using CCSD's dismissal system, GoSafe, at the start of the 25-26 school year. GoSafe is a student dismissal application designed to streamline the dismissal process while providing an added layer of security. 

GoSafe will be used in two ways.  

• First, it will be used as an electronic way for parents to communicate dismissal defaults and daily dismissal changes.  With this system, we will eliminate notes, emails, and phone calls to the office.
• Additionally, GoSafe will be used for our carline.  It will allow electronic scanning and dismissal of students by individual student barcodes.  We will no longer use the carline numbers.

* GoSafe is accessed by the Enrolling Adult from ParentVUE on a mobile device or through ParentVUE website on the computer.

* How to Use the Electronic Dismissal System:

•  The Enrolling Adult logs into ParentVUE to set a child's transportation default.  This is required for each and every student.
•  Download the student's barcode onto the phone or print the barcode. ONE BARCODE PER CHILD.  Multiple students?  Download or print multiple barcodes.  The Enrolling Adult is welcome to share this barcode with trusted friends and family.
•  The adult picking up the child will arrive in their vehicle and get in line behind the other vehicles in the parking lot.  The adult will make sure that the student's barcode is ready to be scanned (either the downloaded version on the phone or the printed copy).
•  The adult will show the barcode to the Scanner and then follow further instructions on when to pull forward to the student pick-up area. 
•  Student will get into the car on the passenger/curb side of the vehicle.  Continue to follow staff instructions while exiting campus. 

* No barcode?  Park and bring your photo ID into the Front Office.  The Front Office will be able to assist once carpool has ended.  Photo IDs will not be checked in the carpool line.
