Attendance Procedures - REMINDER!
We have a new PEIMS clerk joining our Scott team! Now, after each absence please send in a paper note or email to Heather Wadsworth at heather.wadsworth@rcisd.org.
3 days unexcused absence - parents will have to sign an attendance contract
7 days unexcused absence - parents will have to attend an attendance committee meeting
10 days unexcused absence - truancy will be filed with the county
Please send in those notes so that we can get those unexcused absences changed to excused! You can send in a parent note or doctor note! At this age attendance is not a student responsibility but a parent responsibility so please ensure your children are at school when they are healthy!
Attendance Give Away
We are excited to announce that we will have an attendance incentive for students who have perfect attendance between January 8th and February 16th! Please see the image below for details!
Currently 328 students are eligible for the drawing! Way to go Scott Stars!
KINDER ROUNDUP!
Procedure Reminders
ARRIVAL PROCEDURES
FRONT OF BUILDING:
Walkers, Daycares, and Buses ONLY
Do not drop off in the front of the building! If you arrive after the gate closes YOU MUST PARK AND WALK YOUR CHILD IN!
BACK OF BUILDING:
There will be two lines for drop off.
Your child may begin to exit their vehicles as you enter the awning area if you are in the interior lane.
A staff member will assist your student out of the car if you are in the outside lane. They will then be walked to a central location and a crossing guard will stop vehicles to get them across.
Adults will be outside to ensure your child is safe and will happily open vehicle doors of any student whom needs assistance.
DISMISSAL PROCEDURES
If you need to make Dismissal Changes those need to be made by calling the front office by 2:00PM or there is a strong chance your student will go home the way they normally do.
FRONT OF BUILDING:
Bus and Walkers ONLY
WALKERS:
Walkers will not gather at the bike racks (in front of the building) for parents meeting their children. Teachers will escort them in a line out the building to the crosswalk. Please wait across the street for your child. Older siblings (Gr4-5) may wait by the bike racks for their younger sibling before crossing the crosswalks.
BACK OF BUILDING:
The gate will open at 2:45. Please form two lines when entering. You will be given a name/number sign to put around your front mirror. Ms. Rodriguez and Mrs. Sykora will greet you each day and use that code to line the students in order. All students will be brought to your vehicle by an adult.
**For both drop off and pickup; please enter from Erby Campbell; there is no way for you to join the drop off/pickup line if you enter from the service road**
