How many days a week are you offering this? Are you still teaching classes, too? We are running into an issue while trying to figure this out because our students are 100% remote right now, and they have homeroom meetings and lessons every morning and then specials (library, music, art, and PE) in the afternoons. When we are free to do curbside in the mornings, they will all be in meetings with their teachers and can't get away to pick up the books. If the students had the time in the afternoon, we will all be teaching back to back classes online. We are K-5. Are you doing curbside checkout for all grades? We're working on coordinating this for all 5 of our elementary schools in our district, but we're having troubles with the logistics end of it.

I do all the checking out on my end and the PL simply passes the material over when the student or their family member comes in. Books are returned to school, not to them. We literally hammered out the details yesterday so it hasn’t been used yet but it will

</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Arial,sans-serif">We have a hybrid/in person schedule. However, some of our parents have chosen to keep their kids at home for remote learning. We're working on a way for students to pick up their books curbside.
Right now, after students request their book, we've schedule an hour one day a week for parents to swing by and pick up the books. I've learned having only one set hour a week isn't going to really work.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Arial,sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Arial,sans-serif">I suppose we could add a second day with an afternoon time, and kids could choose which time is best. I don't want to put books in the office for parents to pick up; the office is busy enough.
Putting the labeled books on a cart outside the entrance would be a possibility. But we run the risk of someone picking up the wrong books or anyone grabbing something off the cart. I know evening is probably easier for parents, but none of us can stay after
school hours for this. And again, if we leave the cart outside in the evening, we run into the same issues as above. <u></u><u></u></span></p>
