Carpool: Dismissal 

We are preparing for the new school year and wanted to send you some information (reminders for returning families) about our dismissal platform. We will continue to use the PikMyKid Dismissal Application for the 2022-23 school year. The unique features of PikMyKid allow you, as parents, to be in control of your child’s dismissal and it gives us, the school, information regarding dismissal.  

Whether you have an Android phone or an iPhone, visit the appropriate app store and download the PikMyKid app. Once downloaded, the process is very simple. You will verify your contact information and set up a password. As the Primary Parent, you can delegate alternate individuals, but they should have the App also as it will send a matching number to the phone for us to validate the correct person is picking up the proper child. 

If you are a returning Wesley parent and already have the app downloaded, you do not need to download the app again. Just simply log in to confirm that your information is correct. 

Next Monday, August 1 we will begin using PikMyKid.   
Here is the process:

• Place the PikMyKid Car Tag in your front window.
• When you approach the school, you will “announce” your presence through the PikMyKid app. As you drive through the carpool lane (or wait in the walker area), a Wesley staff member will confirm your arrival online. Your child’s name & number will appear on the screen in your child’s classroom.
• Once the number appears, teachers will release students to transition to exit the building on Connally Street.
• Once your vehicle is identified, a Wesley staff member will escort your child to the car. Please be patient!    

Parents will receive a carpool tag during Wesley Welcome Day on July 28. If you are unable to attend Wesley Welcome Day, please request your number virtually by completing the online request form. As a reminder, each child in your household will receive a different carpool tag and number. You must complete a separate form for each child. After completing the form, we will email your carpool tag to you directly. 

For more information about PikMyKid, please view the user guide. Questions or concerns? Contact Donica Johnson.

Carpool Procedures

You can review all the pertinent carpool information in the Wesley family portal on the website and see the process through this short video. You'll get a lot of helpful information on how to use the App in the easy-to-use Parent App User Guide!

Uniforms for 2022-23

As you prepare to return to Wesley on August 1, please see the uniform guidelines for the 2022-23 school year. We have some exciting changes coming for the 2022-23 school year! As you prepare to return to Wesley on August 1, please note the uniform guidelines and new vendor information. Items from Flynn O’Hara can still be purchased online or in-store.

Clarification: PYP students can still wear the red polos (with the old patch) during the transition year. However, PYP students are not permitted to wear gray polos with the old patch. These are for MYP only. The only gray shirts permitted for PYP students during the transition year are ones from the new vendor (new patch).  

Wesley's PTSA will sell uniform-approved items, including the new patches, at the school store. Note: The PTSA will not be able to adhere new patches to uniform items.

2022-23 Meal Program

Please note the changes to the meal program this year. Each household must complete and submit an online lunch application. 

2022-23 Breakfast & Lunch Information

This year, breakfast and lunch meals will NOT be free of charge for families. This means that each household must complete and submit an online lunch application. All families that qualify for free and reduced lunch based on income will be notified by the district. Those who do not will be required to pay full price for meals.  

Students are expected to pay the full price for meals until the free and reduced meal application has been processed. The eligibility status is sent to parents and the school. Students in a paying meal status who have insufficient funds for meal payment will be allowed to incur and accumulate a charge balance.   

In the event that student school meal accounts become delinquent, the district will continue to make school meals available to students unless the parents have consented in writing to withholding meals and/or the delinquency has reached a predetermined amount set by the district or school. Parents must pay the total balance in full before the end of the school year. 

Each family should fill out an application, even if you know you don't qualify. Not only does it determine a family's eligibility status, but it also helps Wesley receive funding for resources.

Pricing Information

Breakfast 

• Full Pay: $1.50 
• Reduced Pay: $0.30 

Lunch 

• Full Pay: $3.00 
• Reduced Pay: $0.40 

APS Nutrition provides a convenient meal payment method:

Families paying for meals will need to submit payment through the MySchoolBucks online payment system. Schools will not be collecting money for school meals.

Online Prepayment System

Log onto MySchoolBucks, and the parent can register the child. The parent will need the child’s name school and APS student ID number, which can be obtained from the main office of the school.

Questions? Contact Donica Johnson or reach out to the APS Nutrition Department.

Wesley is working to address technology needs to ensure that all of our scholars have access to technology by launching a Chromebook lending program. Participation in this program is subject to the following terms and conditions via the Technology Computer Loan Agreement Form.
