Early Dismissal

Early dismissals should be requested only for serious reasons. If a student needs to leave school early, the student must bring a signed note from the parent /guardian the day prior to the dismissal if possible but no later than the beginning of the day on which the early dismissal is required. The note should indicate who is picking the child up. Only those listed on your child's emergency form will be allowed to sign your child out of school. Exceptions may be made with a written note by the parent/guardian.  A phone call from a parent/guardian is sufficient under extenuating circumstances, but upon return from school the student must bring a signed note from a parent or guardian. A parent or guardian may appear in person to request dismissal. However, the school reserves the right to ask for proper identification and the parent or guardian must sign their son or daughter out. When a student returns from an early dismissal for a doctor's appointment that student must bring a note from the doctor indicating the time the appointment ended.  

Early dismissal for medical or dental appointments shall be granted when the parents/guardians make a request. Parents/guardians shall be urged to keep such requests to a minimum and encouraged to make arrangements for care during vacation periods or after school hours. Early dismissal may not be requested for work, job interviews or DMV appointments. If a student is ill and needs to be sent home early, the parent/guardian listed on the emergency form will be contacted.​​

Mass days are scheduled in the calendar.  If for some reason your child will not be able to attend mass, please make arrangements for them to be picked up before mass begins.
