    TARDINESS All students arriving at school AFTER 8:49 am are to report to the main office before going to their classroom.  Parents must sign the child in and students must take a Tardy Pass to class.  Please do not just drop off your child to enter the building alone.

    Please call students absence into the Attendance line before 9:30 a.m.

    Call the main office with any dismissal changes during the school day.

    CHILDREN LEAVING WHILE SCHOOL IS IN SESSION Children are not permitted to go home by themselves while school is in session.  This policy is intended for the protection of the child.   When it becomes necessary for a child to go home due to illness or pre-arranged appointment, a parent or other responsible person designated by the parent must come into the office to sign out the child.    Parents are reminded to make dental and medical appointment for children after school hours, whenever possible.  Please send an email to the teacher regarding pre-arranged absences.  

    Please call your students absence into the Attendance line by 9:30 a.m. (or earlier!). Please call the main office number with any dismissal changes during the school day.  

    IT IS IMPORTANT THAT STUDENTS MAINTAIN GOOD ATTENDANCE AND ARRIVE TO SCHOOL ON TIME EVERY DAY.  EXCESSIVE ABSENTEEISM AND TARDINESS IS DETRIMENTAL TO A STUDENT’S ABILITY TO ACHIEVE HIS/HER HIGHEST LEVEL.
