Transportation

• The designated bus pick-up area is just up the hill on the Founders’ Campus, near the top of the pathway that connects EBL and Founders’ Campus.
• EBL faculty and staff supervise KPrep - Gr 3 students while they gather in two of the Gr 3 classrooms then proceed to the bus area at Founders’.
• Please ensure your student knows his/her district name (i.e. Loveland, Mason, etc.) and bus #. Kindergarten teachers have a protocol for ensuring students get to the right buses. We encourage you to attach a tag to your child’s backpack with district name and bus #. Bus aides and bus drivers will also ensure that students are boarding the right bus, prior to them boarding.
• Inclement weather:
  • During inclement weather, students will remain inside EBL until their bus is called.
  • Each child needs to have a raincoat and poncho kept in their cubby throughout the year. If they wear it home, please be sure to send it back the next day.
  • CHCA will provide each student with an umbrella to carry on their walk from EBL to the bus.
• Additional protocol:
  • Please be sure your student knows whether he/she is riding the bus on a given day.
  • If you need to change your child’s pick-up status on any given day, please call 513-247-9944 x101 by noon.

• We have 3 carpool areas to pick up your child(ren):  Front Circle, road to the Montgomery Community Church, and Lower Circle.
• On the first day of school, head to the gym and stop by the carpool table to pick up your cards. Carpool pick-up will be assigned as follows (though please extend us grace as this may change early in the year should we experience unusually heavy traffic in one or more line):
  • Front Circle – Last names A-G
  • MCC Area– Last names H-O
  • Lower Circle – Last names P-Z
• Pick-up lanes will not be open until 2:50 each day.
• All traffic will flow directly into each of the three carpool lanes.
• Additional protocol notes:
  • Do not get out of your car during carpool.
  • Do not park in the front circle of EBL at any time. This is a fire lane to be kept clear at ALL times.
  • Exercise extreme caution and GO SLOW when driving on campuses.
  • DO NOT text and drive.
  • Pull up as far as you can to the car in front of you.  Leaving big “gaps” is not helpful as we need every inch of space for carpool. 

Thank you using caution and for helping us ensure the safety of all children.
