Early Dismissal / Overview

EARLY DISMISSAL PROCEDURE

Families can call or come to the school to request an early dismissal no later than 1:30pm. After 1:30pm, students will not be dismissed early and families will not be allowed to get students off of the bus.

Students requesting early dismissal on a one-time basis to attend a scheduled appointment should contact the Attendance Office. Parents/guardians must send a written request to the attendance secretary. Your child's safety is paramount to us. We will call to verify the written request. Parents/guardians must provide the school with a phone number for us to verify and validate.

Only people pre-approved by you and currently listed in the system are allowed to pick up your child. Students will not be dismissed if we cannot reach a parent/guardian.
