Are you ready for the big day?

Dallas ISD’s biggest opportunity to showcase the myriad of opportunities available to families is just a day away, and below is all the information schools need for a successful Discover event, including how to be ready to welcome families at 9 a.m. this Saturday.

Team members who arrive between 6:30 and 7:30 a.m. will have access to VIP curbside service at the Automobile Building in Fair Park. This service includes escorting them to their designated space and assisting with transporting decorations and props. All schools are expected to be expo ready by 8:35 a.m.

As school team members arrive through Gate 3 to park, they should  display the staff parking permit on their dashboards. The parking pass is available for print. Arrive early and pay close attention to VIP loading signs. 

Loading areas are different for elementary, middle, and high schools. Those who have materials for their tables to unload can get close to the unloading area and then park. The loading areas can be found here for each level: Elementary & Middle School, High School.

Parking for Dallas ISD staff, volunteers, and vendors is located off of Parry and Washington Avenue, in Lots 3D and 3E, with overflow parking available in Lots 2A and 2B. Lot 3C is available for buses only. Please note that the earlier you arrive, the closer you’ll be to the venue.

Each campus’ marketing informational sheets will be placed on the assigned table the morning of the event. Schools are encouraged to bring additional materials to decorate their tables or share with families. Principals are encouraged to promote the event on their social media pages utilizing the marketing tools provided here in the DallasISD.org/toolkits.

Warm coffee, light bites, and a box lunch (two person maximum per table) will be provided for team members. If additional team members are expected to be at the table, they should be encouraged to bring their own snacks and lunch.
