Student Drop Off, Pick-up, and Parking
Parking Lot & Drop-Off/Pick-Up
- Parking lot is open only to buses and parents with handicapped parking passes all mornings 7:30-7:50 AM, and all afternoons 2:45-3:20 PM
- Busses will be loading and unloading in front of the building
- There is a continuous drop-off/pick-lane along the east side of Palermo Ave.
- There is no parking on Palermo Ave between Milan St and Rialto Ave.
- The "staging" or waiting area for afternoon pick-up is on Milan St. running parallel to the south edge of our playground. There is NO STUDENT PICK UP allowed on Milan St after school. This disrupts the flow of traffic and makes a dangerous situation for cars trying to go around the stopped cars. Please arrange to pick up your child in the pick up lane on Palermo.
- In order to come into the parking lot during the closed hours listed above, vehicles will need a “Husky Pass” from the office.
To be most efficient for student pick-up and drop-off times, here are a few tips:
- The best, and most easily accessible, parking is north of Ann K. Heiman.
- When coming to Ann K. Heiman off 37th St, use Sienna Ave and come around to the north side of the school. (Please see white dotted line below)
- The pick-up/drop-off zone is for quick drop-off and pick-ups. THERE IS NO PARKING IN THIS LANE.
- The front doors of the school will not be a good “meeting place.” Please, find another location along the west side of the school.
- To be most efficient please come to school with a meet-up plan in place.
- If a vehicle is coming into the parking lot with a “Husky Pass,” please come straight in off Rialto Ave. (There will be no right or left hand turns during closed parking hours)
Last, but certainly not least, courtesy.
- Please do not park in front of our neighbors' driveways.
- Follow all speed limits.
- If you see a vehicle that is not following these guidelines, please report to Ann K. Heiman office staff (970) 348-2400 or Evans Police department non-emergency (970) 667-2074. Do not engage in conflict. Remember our children are watching.

Student Arrival
Our campus will open at 7:30 am (8:30 am on Mondays) for students to enter our building.
Upon entering the building, students will head directly to their classrooms. If they need breakfast, they will enter through the Cafeteria doors and get breakfast to-go to eat in their classrooms.
First bell will be at 7:35 am and the school day will begin at 7:40 am.
Dismissal Process
Pick-up lane: Dismissed at 2:50; students will exit out onto the blacktop or the end of the west wing. Please pull all the way forward, and do not park and leave your car unattended in this lane.
Walkers: Dismissed at 2:50; exit out onto the blacktop or the end of the west wing. Students who walk to/from school will be expected to cross at one of the crosswalks along Palermo (Florence, Rialto, or Milan) for their safety.
Bus: Bus students will also exit onto the blacktop and walk around the school to the bus. Please have a pre-arranged meeting spot where your children should meet up to either leave the campus or enter your vehicle. We cannot over stress the importance of arriving on time.
Please make sure your child(ren) knows how they are getting home.
