School ID's need to be worn everyday
Students were given their new school ID's in a plastic sleeve and lanyard on Tuesday, October 15th. This ID has their picture from last year, their name and a bar code.
Students are expected to wear these every day. They will need these ID's to scan in the lunch line (it makes getting lunch so much quicker) and they also need to scan them on their buses in the morning and the afternoon.
If a student does not have their ID to get on the bus in the AM or PM the bus driver will not let them on and parents will have to transport.
If a student does not have their ID for the lunch line they will NOT be denied a lunch but will be asked to go to the end of the lunch line and wait for ID's to be scanned. This goes for breakfast as well.
Students who lose their ID will need to see Ms. Morrison in the library for a replacement that will cost $3. Students cannot have their face markered out or the bar code markered out. If they do they will need to buy a replacement ID.
