Leaving School Early
A student may not leave the school before the regular dismissal time without a written request from a parent or guardian. The request must state the reason for early dismissal.
Leaving the School Grounds
At no time may a student leave the school grounds without adult supervision. Students who must leave the school grounds for important reasons after 8:00 a.m. must be signed out at the Health Office by a parent or legal guardian, or by someone with written authorization from a parent or legal guardian. We ask that the following policy be adhered to:
1. The student will bring a written note FIRST to the homeroom teacher as soon as he/she arrives at school in the morning. The note should be addressed to the homeroom teacher, dated and signed; it should mention the time the student is to be released and whether he/she will return later in the day.
2. When the student is dismissed, he/she must be signed out in the Health Office; if and when the student returns to school, he/she must sign back in to the office before entering class.
3. A parent or legal guardian must be present in the Health Office to dismiss a child, as students are never permitted to leave school grounds during school hours unless accompanied by a parent or Guardian.
4. Students involved in after-school activities may NEVER leave the school grounds without adult supervision and then return for their scheduled activity.
5. A phone call or e-mail will not be sufficient to release a student from school.
