Early Dismissal/Leaving School Grounds
When leaving school prior to dismissal, students must report to the office to be signed out by a parent/guardian or an adult the parent/guardian has designated on the emergency card. This requirement is to ensure the safety and well-being of your child. Children who need to leave school during the day MUST bring a written excuse to the School Office in the morning for approval. The parent must sign the child out when they leave school, and sign in when they return to school. If a child needs to be dismissed early, the parent should report to the office to pick up his/her child. Parents are not permitted to the classroom to pick up children. For safety purposes, children will not be released to anyone not listed as an emergency contact.
Leaving School Grounds During School Hours
No child is permitted to leave school during school hours. If it is necessary for your child to leave during school hours, the parent/guardian must sign him/her out at the office. The child will be called out of class once the parent/guardian has arrived and student has been signed out. Please allow 5-10 minutes for your child to be located and called out of class (e.g., if you need to leave at 1 p.m. for an appointment, please be in the office by 12:50 p.m.). No child will be released to anyone except a parent/guardian unless the office has been notified in advance
