If you are planning to attend the Family Picnic, please come to P.K. Yonge before Wednesday, March 16 to have your photo ID scanned by the P.K. Yonge Gate Guard at the West Entrance gate (1080 SW 11th Street). After you have had your ID scanned you can use the signup below to have your ID badge printed ahead of time.
NOTE: Photo IDs will NOT be scanned during drop-off or pick up times.
SECOND: Complete the Online Sign-Up (AFTER you’ve had your photo ID scanned)
In the interest of campus safety, all family members need a visitor badge to attend the picnic. Please use the online sign-up to get your visitor badge printed ahead of time. On the day of the picnic, you will be able to pick up your badge from your student’s teacher. In order to use the online sign-up, you must have already had a photo scanned at the West Entrance gate (1080 SW 11th Street) before the day of the picnic.

If you have a middle or high school student who attends P.K. and will be joining you for the picnic, please EMAIL ATTENDANCE (attendance@pky.ufl.edu) by Wednesday, March 16 and include the student’s name, grade, and that they will need to be checked out for the picnic.
FOURTH: For Families Unable to Attend
We realize every family may not be able to attend the picnic and we would like to make sure that every student has the opportunity to sit with a family or friend. Please let your student’s teacher know if you are unable to attend and we will make arrangements for your student.
