Pickup/Drop-Off When a student arrives at Summer Sizzle, they are responsible for signing in at the iPad with staff. Drop-off can occur anywhere from 7:45 until 8:30 a.m. Other Drop-off times must be predetermined and scheduled with the Summer Care Coordinator. Summer Sizzle students may be dropped off and picked up from the front doors of the MACE Wing. If you will be picking up your child before 4:45 p.m., please buzz in at the Community Education doors and remain at the entry. If you are picking up your child between 4:45—5:15 p.m., please remain with your vehicle in the pick up lane, and a staff member will bring your child out. All children must be picked up by parents or other authorized persons. Only those persons authorized on their registration form will be allowed to pick up the child. If someone other than an authorized person will be picking up your child, the Summer Care Supervisor or Coordinator must be notified. We will not release a child to any person not listed on the registration form. For any adjustments, appointments, change in plans please contact the Summer Care Coordinator so we can arrange that adequately if possible. The summer care staff is not responsible for a child's welfare after he/she leaves.
