Students will not be released to parents who are walking up to the drive thru doors. If you are wanting to walk up to pick up your students, you will need to park, enter the main doors of the building and present proper identification or your family number card to the office.

*IMPORTANT: No students will be released between 2:00pm and 2:35pm. Students MUST BE PICKED UP BY 2:50pm. Students who are not picked up by 2:50pm will be taken to the office and will wait on the benches.

Regular school attendance is important for continued educational progress. The expectation is for students to arrive at school on time and to remain at school until dismissal. Students need to be in attendance a minimum of 90% of the instructional time scheduled in order to make satisfactory academic progress and be unconditionally recommended for promotion to the next grade.

All absences (excused and unexcused) shall be included in the calculation of the 90% attendance minimum. The principal shall review all students’ attendance records reflecting absenteeism in excess of 10% of the scheduled instructional time and shall make a determination regarding a recommendation for retention. Parents/guardians shall be notified, in writing, of any recommendation for retention (non-promotion) due to excessive absenteeism (absences exceeding 10% of the scheduled instructional time). Letters are automatically sent to parents after the 9th absence during a semester indicating the possibility of retention.
