MORNING ARRIVAL SIGN-IN PROCEDURES
Students who arrive to school after 8:15 a.m. must report to the main office with a parent or guardian and sign-in with the receptionist. If the student does not bring a valid reason for being tardy, the sign-in will count as an unexcused tardy for regular classes and an unexcused absence if he/she is enrolled in a course for high school credit that period. If a student is late to a class and he/she does not have a pass from a teacher, staff member, or the front office, he/she will be marked tardy.
TARDINESS
Students who arrive to school after 7:50 are reported at tardy. A parent or guardian must report to the office with the student. Tardy student will not be permitted to class without a parent or guardian. A student who arrives late to class without a pass, throughout the school day, is tardy.
- Tardy to School: Students tardy to school will not be admitted without an admit pass from the PowerSchool Clerk, main office, or from an administrator.
- Tardy to Class: See table below:
SIGN-OUT PROCEDURES
Students who become ill during the school day should request to go to the nurse. If the nurse is not available, students will report to the PowerSchool Clerk Office, and he/she will notify parents of the illness. The student must be signed out by his/her parent or other responsible person designated by the parent and listed on the student’s registration card. All students who are picked up early from school will be signed out through the PowerSchool Clerk Office or the Main Office.
Parents/guardians must sign off on the sign-out sheet that is kept in the Main Office.
EARLY DISMISSAL OF STUDENTS
If a student must leave school early, the parent/guardian must show valid ID, sign the student out documenting the time dismissed, and provide the purpose of the dismissal. If a person other than the parent/guardian is picking the student up, he or she must be on the parent/guardian-approved list, show valid ID, complete the sign out sheet documenting the leave time and leave purpose.
It is our goal to accommodate parents as much as possible. However, for safety reasons and to protect the high levels of teaching and learning occurring on our campus all students requiring early dismissal must be signed out by 2:30pm. No student will be called to the office for early dismissal after 2:30 pm. No Exceptions!
