The attendance secretary will enter the partial absence if your student is leaving early and create a release slip for your student.
The slip acts as their pass for the teacher and security.
If you are picking up your child, you, the parent, do NOT need to come into the school building if you have called ahead of time to release your student early. Your student can meet you outside.
If the student is walking or has their own transportation, they can leave with their release slip.
Written notes will not be accepted.
Failure to call will result in the absence defaulting to unexcused.

Parking/Traffic
Student drivers, please enter and exit through Burns Rd. or Revere to alleviate traffic issues before and after school. Also, make sure to go to the link below to purchase your parking permit. ALL STUDENTS MUST HAVE A PARKING PERMIT AND MUST PARK IN THE STUDENT PARKING LOT.
Permits can be purchased through the attached link or QR code
Traffic Pattern for AM Drop-Off
Thank you for your continued support and cooperation in improving the morning drop-off traffic flow. To help ensure a smooth process, please follow these guidelines:
- Use the outside lanes to drop off your student(s).
- After drop-off near the main entrance, immediately move forward to the PAC stop sign to allow others to drop off efficiently.
- Cars will merge before the stop sign and must turn RIGHT at the PAC stop sign.
- This route will guide traffic around the back of the stadium. From there, you may exit the campus via Burns or Revere or continue wrapping around the stadium to exit via Middle School Drive onto Butternut.
- Please avoid cutting through the brick school bus lane to help maintain a steady traffic flow and prevent congestion.
For further clarification, please refer to the attached visual representation of the traffic pattern.
Thank you for your cooperation!
