Attendance
If your child will not be at school or will be tardy, please use Infinite Campus to report the absence. Here is a "how to" video: Absence Requests in Infinite Campus
The attendance line is currently still an option but we prefer parents use Infinite Campus
Please complete the Pre-Excused Absence Form prior to any pre-planned absences. Completed forms will need to be returned to the office.
Reporting an absence is important and necessary even if you have contacted your child's teacher.
Arrival & Dismissal
Arrival procedures for all students:
All students must enter through the front/main entrance. For safety reasons, the back and side doors are not used as an entrance in the morning and are locked at all times.
Students should not arrive on school property until 8:20 as there is no supervision.
Dismissal is at 3:30pm daily. Please make sure your child's teacher knows how he/she will get home each day. If your child will be picked up by a parent (or family member/friend), please indicate if they will be picked up in back or front of school. If your pick-up plan changes during the day/week, please send this update to both the teacher and the main office.
Drop off/Pick up and Parent Parking – Due to the high volume of vehicles coming and going during drop-off and pick-up times, a bit of traffic and congestion is inevitable. Student safety is always our primary concern throughout the school day.
We would like to offer the following suggestions to maximize safety and efficiency for all:
- The drive through lane in front of school is for drop and go only. If you would like to get out to say good-bye, or if your child needs assistance with a car seat, etc., please park in the lot and walk your child to the door if they need assistance or to say your good-byes.
- Cars are expected to pull all the way to the end of the drive through to avoid long lines that extend into Lincoln Ave.
- Please have children exit the car along the sidewalk, and not in the drive through if at all possible
