Arrival & Dismissal Procedures, Traffic Flow Maps

For early checkouts, students will not be called out of class until a parent or guardian is present to sign them out. To minimize missed class time, we encourage families to plan ahead for appointments. Thank you for your cooperation!

To prevent the spread of illness, please keep your child home if they have any of the following symptoms:

• Temperature of 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit or higher
• Vomiting
• Diarrhea
• Severe sore throat
• Eyes with inflammation, redness, and watery or purulent drainage
• Communicable disease

If a student becomes ill during school, a caregiver of the student must be contacted before a student is allowed to leave the building. It is essential to provide your child's school with updated contact numbers so caregivers may be reached concerning illness and emergencies.

Students are welcome to return to school after being symptom-free (without medicine) for 24 hours. As always, please contact the school nurse if you have any questions or concerns about your child's health. We're here to help!
