It lets me updatethe pick-up plans on the go where I can either assign a guardian who will be picking up my kid or notifying the school about the after-school activities.

  ### 7. Seamless dismissal at school.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Margo P. | Classroom Teacher, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 21, 2024

**What do you like best about PikMyKid?**

PikMyKid allows each teacher to select their classroom and monitor the students that are being dismissed each day. It also allows parents to create dismissal changes with ease by simply typing in a number.

**What do you dislike about PikMyKid?**

Like all programs, sometimes it can have a few glitches or parents/administrators can type in the wrong dismissal number for a child.

It allows for a quiet dismissal in the afternoons. The children are dismissed one a time, rather than a large group all at once.

  ### 8. Safe and Easy

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Primary/Secondary Education | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 19, 2020

**What do you like best about PikMyKid?**

The biggest upside to pikmykid is the fact that students no longer have to rely on being called for pickup over a loudspeaker system. The user error with this is high, and students often miss their name being called, resulting in a parking line being severely backed up. With pikmykid, the student names are projected on the board for all to see.

**What do you dislike about PikMyKid?**

Having to print the car tags is time-consuming, and often parents do not have their car tag with them.

**Recommendations to others considering PikMyKid:**

If you need an easy, convenient system for student pick up, this is IT.

**What problems is PikMyKid solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The biggest problem pikmykid has solved, is students being able to not only clearly see on the board that their parent is there, but being able to see that their parent is on their way soon. Another huge benefit is being able to verify the parent with the car tag or use of the app.

  ### 9. Decent solution for our dismissal needs

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 04, 2019

**What do you like best about PikMyKid?**

I like not having to go outside and stand up in the heat with 20+ students. I just project PikMyKid on my smart screen board in class, and the students are able to see their name pop up on the screen. They then grab their book bags, and leave.

**What do you dislike about PikMyKid?**

Every now and then the site crashes or fails to update. It is a simple fix, I just have to refresh my screen. I also wish the layout of the website was a bit cleaner for non administrative users.

**Recommendations to others considering PikMyKid:**

Be sure to refresh your screen if you haven't noticed any activity for a while.

**What problems is PikMyKid solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We have been having a rough time with dismissal due to the non traditional location of our school campus. We share a four story building with another company. Outside of our building, we don't have a traditional covered side walk like most schools do for drop off and dismissal. So during bad weather, we all got soaked. Thankfully due to PikMyKid, the students are kept safe and dry inside of the building, and are escorted outside one by one during dismissal.

  ### 10. Great Concept Almost Perfect Implimintation

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jennifer K. | Librarian, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 13, 2018

**What do you like best about PikMyKid?**

I love that you can see the students names in your classroom that are going to be picked up, without having to hear names constantly being blasted over an intercom system.

**What do you dislike about PikMyKid?**

I dislike the fact that at times the names of students go past the bottom of where the page shows, so that you constantly have to scroll up and down to see the students names to make sure you didn't miss anyone.

**Recommendations to others considering PikMyKid:**

If your school is looking for a program that will help in dismissal, making it quick and effective, then they should certainly think about PikMyKid!

**What problems is PikMyKid solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are making sure that every student that leaves our building is accounted for, and we are eliminating the incessant call of names coming over a loud speaker, which causes confusion for teachers and students.

I like the ability in Pik My Kid to create a virtual line of cars who have announced they are here to pick up their kids. They are also able to delegate others to pick their kids up or let us know the child will be walking or taking the bus one day.

I dislike the notifications on the site. It often will not let us see notifications we have sent out even though we know they were sent and parents received them.
