​Off Campus Pass

Once a student arrives on campus he/she may not leave without permission from the office.

No student is ever allowed off - campus during school hours without the specific parent/guardian permission (written or faxed) obtained in advance from the Attendance Office Clerk. To receive an Off Campus Pass the student must:​

            a. Present a note to the Attendance Office Clerk prior to the first bell. This note must specify the student's name, grade level, exact time of dismissal,                   the reason for dismissal, and the phone number of a parent who can be called to verify the note. Only those reasons listed as acceptable for excused                       absences are considered appropriate for an Off Campus pass.

           b. Pick up the Off Campus pass from the Attendance Office Clerk at break. If the pass is needed earlier, make arrangements when leaving note with                 the Clerk in the morning.

           c.  At the beginning of the period, show the Off Campus pass to the teacher from whose class you will be leaving.

Student's must obtain an admit slip from the Attendance Clerk before returning to any class that may have been missed. Student's returning to campus the same day must return the Off-Campus pass to the Attendance Clerk upon arrival, or the next day of return. NOTE: Students must be in attendance for the last four blocks of the school day in order to participate in or attend any school event.

Medical/dental appointments must be verified no later than 24 hours with the appropriate form from the medical office upon the students return to school.
