A Word About Elementary Drop-Off and Pick-up

Before diving into PikMyKid, please note the following important procedures:

 

Morning Drop-Off

  • No Walk-Ups in the Morning: For safety and efficiency, all students must arrive through the single drop-off car line—no exceptions.

Afternoon Pick-Up

  • Students may be picked up through the car line or the optional walk-up line.

  • For safety reasons, we highly encourage parents to use the car line.

  • Walk-Up Parking: Parents who choose the walk-up option must park in the ELC parking lot or the UMC/public lot at 1st and College St..

  • Please Avoid the Old Bank Lot: Parking there causes pedestrians to cross in front of the car line, which creates a serious safety hazard.

  • Other End-of-Day Options: Some students transition to After-Care or participate in seasonal clubs such as cheer or STEAM programs.

PikMyKid Dismissal System

This page will provide you with all the information you need to get up and running with the PikMyKid Dismissal Application (PMK). Whether you’re a returning family needing a refresher or a new family setting up for the first time, you’ll find everything here to help ensure a smooth start. PikMyKid helps keep dismissal safe, efficient, and well-organized by streamlining procedures, reducing traffic congestion, and—most importantly—improving student safety.

Important Note:
PikMyKid includes an option for parents to “announce” their arrival in the pickup line. Summit does not use this feature—please disregard any prompts related to announcing your arrival.

PikMyKid allows you to:

  • Easily change your child’s pickup mode (Car Line or Walk Up)

  • Transition your child to an After School program

Setting Your Default Pickup Method

As of today, you may set your child’s default pickup method in the PikMyKid app. This must be done before September 1, 2025. At that time, the window will close for the first semester, and changes will no longer be possible until January.

To set your default pickup method:

  1. Open the PikMyKid app and go to “My Children.”

  2. Tap on your child’s name. For multiple children, tap the light green three-bar icon next to your school name.

  3. If you selected multiple students, tap the three-dot icon that appears.

  4. Select "Default Pickup."

  5. Choose your preferred default pickup mode from the list.

  6. Tap Save to confirm.

If the option appears grayed out, it may be temporarily restricted—please contact the school office for assistance.

Changing Your Pickup Method for the Day

Life happens, and sometimes you need to adjust your child’s pickup plan. PikMyKid makes it simple to change your child’s dismissal method for any given day.

Summit Requirement:
All same-day pickup changes must be submitted in PikMyKid before 2:00 p.m. This ensures our staff has time to update dismissal plans and communicate with teachers.

How to Change the Pickup Method:

  1. Open the PikMyKid app and go to “My Children.”

  2. Tap your child’s name (or use the three-bar icon for multiple children).

  3. Select the date on the calendar for the change.

  4. Tap “Change Pickup.”

  5. Choose the correct pickup mode (Car Line, Walk Up, or After School Program).

  6. Confirm your selection and save the change.

Adding Delegates

What is a Delegate?
In PikMyKid, a delegate is someone you trust—like a grandparent, babysitter, neighbor, or family friend—who is permitted to pick up your child when you're unable to do so.

Important: Delegates must download the PikMyKid app on their own smartphone and create their own accountwith a unique phone number and email.

How to Add a Delegate for a Specific Day:

  1. Open the PikMyKid app and go to “Children.”

  2. Tap your child’s name (or the green three-bar icon for multiple children).

  3. Select the date on the calendar for the change.

  4. Tap “Change Pickup.”

  5. Under “Who is picking up?”, select “someone else.”

  6. Choose an existing delegate or import a new contact from your phone.

  7. Confirm changes. Both the school and the other primary guardian will be notified.
