The importance of regular attendance cannot be overemphasized. A child should be in school every day that he/she is physically able. It is extremely difficult to successfully keep up with classwork if attendance is irregular. It is equally important that students arrive to school on time to alleviate missed instructional time. The district’s attendance policy states:

Student Checkouts

For the safety of our students, your child will only be released to an adult listed with permission on your child’s registration form. If an adult other than the parent or guardian listed on the registration form arrives to pick up a student, we will need to contact the student’s parent/guardian prior to releasing the student. If you need to add/delete members, please stop by the front office to make changes.

No checkouts will be permitted after 2:15 p.m. Monday - Thursday or 1:00 p.m. on Fridays.

Rainy Day Dismissal

Please ensure that you have a Rainy-Day Dismissal Plan in place with your child and his/her teacher. It is important for children to be aware in advance of what to do in case of stormy weather. If there is light rain with no sign of thunder or lightning, dismissal will proceed as normal. Bike riders and walkers will be reminded to proceed home as quickly as possible. In the event of a severe downpour, or if there are signs of thunder or lightning, students will remain on campus and will follow their Rainy-Day Dismissal Plan.
