ECC Drop-off & Pick-up

Pedestrian Gate: Walk into the school to the classroom. Half-day pick-up is available from the pedestrian gate only.
Parking Lot: At drop-off, please stay in your vehicle. Get your hugs and snuggles at home before you leave; we will assist your child out of their seat and walk them into the school. At pick-up, a teacher will walk your child out, and you will buckle them into their car seat.

K-8:

If your student is picked up or dropped off outside of the main drop-off and pick-up times, you will need to sign in/out with security in the front lot of the 5401 building and frontdesk@wns-la.org and your classroom teachers.

ECC:

Walk up to the security booth outside the ECC and the officer will radio for your child. 

Playground is our digital drop-off and pick-up management application. Once you arrive, please click the QR code in the top right corner in the app. Scan the posted QR code and please follow the prompts to sign student(s) in. Please select ALL students that are being dropped off or picked up. Once you have signed in, please show the security officer or faculty/staff member the green confirmation screen. Your student may not be loaded or unloaded until this has happened. In the instance the QR code function doesn’t work, the security officer or faculty/staff member will send a digital signature to your app where you can then follow the prompts for sign-in or sign-out each day; please remember to bring your phone for this. If your child is going home with a different adult, parents and caregivers must add authorized pick-ups or create a one time carpool. All authorized pick-ups must download the app in order to pick up and sign out your child. If you have a last-minute change to your pick-up plans, please email summer@wns-la.org or frontdesk@wns-la.org.

New families will receive an email with a unique link to register your student. You will receive a family number, which corresponds to your vehicle decal. Please do not share this link. Once you have downloaded and registered your account, you can add additional caregivers to the app. Please see here for further steps and directions. Please email Enjolie Gray at egray@wns-la.org if you have any questions or need support troubleshooting the app.

If your student is enrolled in the half-day program, please make sure to pack a snack. For students registered in the full-day program, please make sure to pack two snacks and a lunch. Hot lunch is available for the summer program with OrganicKidsLA.

Please click here to make an account or use your current account to place an order.

Lunches are not held in a refrigerated place, so please keep this in mind when packing your student’s lunch. Please make sure everything is labeled with your child’s name. If ordering hot lunch, returning families must update their child’s grade level they are entering in the 24-25 school year. Emergency hot lunch is available if needed. WNS prohibits the delivery of student snacks or lunches through food delivery services.

WNS is a nut-controlled environment, and we need your help in ensuring safety for all students. To maintain a safe environment for all of our students, we ask parents to avoid foods containing nuts of any kind when packing school snacks and lunches. If a student’s lunch does contain nuts, the faculty/staff will suggest an alternative seat based on students’ allergy needs.

ECC:

Snack Time
Snacks are provided by the school and available in the morning and the afternoon, typically consisting of a fruit or vegetable and crackers or other types of grain. WNS is a nut-controlled environment; no snacks served at school will include nuts. If your child has allergies or food restrictions, please contact the School Nurses at schoolnurse@wns-la.org.

Lunch Time:
All children (half-day, and full-day) will have lunch at school. Lunch should be trash-free, nut-free (seeds are ok), dessert-free, and healthy in a reusable, bento-style lunchbox. We also have lunch service through Organic Kids LA over the summer. Returning students can use their existing account, new students will need to create an account at Organic Kids LA.
