Car line tips & info!
Everyone wants a safe, smooth, efficient drop-off and pick-up procedure! Here's what we're doing to help facilitate that...
Representatives from BCISD will be meeting with TxDOT to discuss our traffic and consider a light at the intersection of 963 and CR 200.
The Burnet police patrol unit will continue to assist with traffic flow as much as possible.
Here's what YOU can do to keep our line rolling safely and smoothly...
Stay in your car. The teachers on duty will assist with the loading and unloading of your student. If you prefer to unload your child, please park in a parking spot and walk your child up to the doors.
No double stacking in the county road. Double stacking can begin in the two lanes of the SGE driveway. However, the line of traffic on CR 200 should be single file.
Have you considered turning right? Often, traffic backs up at the intersection of 963 and CR 200. As a result, sometimes turning left from the Shady Grove parking lot is time consuming. If you are able to turn right, you may save some time!
Walk-ups! If you park on a nearby street and walk your child up to the campus, please do not block any driveways. Our school neighbors appreciate your cooperation! To ensure your child arrives to the campus safely, please walk your student up to the campus rather than sending him/her to walk alone. The back doors on campus are for bus riders. The front doors are for car riders and walkers.
Safety first! Please do not allow your child to hang outside of the car windows or sunroof while traveling through the car line.
No in-person pick-up after 3:00pm until the car line is finished. As we work to dismiss our students in a timely and orderly fashion, we must keep the front entry/exit doors uncrowded. As a result, parents needing to check their students out must do so before 3:00pm or after the car line is finished.
Visitor Information
As a reminder, visitors on campus will be limited in the following ways from now until September 18th:
- Parents who would like to walk their child to the classroom door are able to do so after checking in at the front office with identification.
- Visitors are not able to eat breakfast or lunch in the cafeteria.
BCISD will publish any updates to visitor limitations based upon public health guidance, local health data, and experiences from the first month of school by September 17, 2021.

How do I request a change in transportation?

In order to ensure a smooth dismissal process for all students, requests made after 1:30pm will not be processed. Notes, phone calls, text messages and emails sent to any other email will not be processed.
