In the case of a true emergency a phone call may be made, but please use this method as a last resort in order to minimize classroom interruption and instructional time. If the student will be picked up by someone other than a parent or guardian, please include the full name of the person and the relation to the student. Students leaving early should be picked up no later than 2:45 p.m. If a parent or guardian is at the school for a school or classroom activity and is taking their child after the activity they must sign the student out in the main office. If there is a sibling in a different grade/class that you would like to take with you, please have the office call the student out of their classroom. Students should not be pulled out of their classroom by a parent/guardian.
