2009-10 Student Handbook

 

o Homework requests: If your student is home ill for three or more days please call the Attendance Office, and we can do a homework request, where we contact your student’s teachers and collect the student’s homework so you can pick it up. However, if you prefer, you may request homework from teachers by emailing them directly.

o Pre-arranged/Vacation Homework Re­quests are available in the front office. The 10th day Absence Policy applies for all pre-arranged absences, including vacations.

o If your child has an appointment during the day, please give them a note so that your child can come to the Attendance Office to fill out an Early Dismissal for the time allowed. When your child returns to school, they must come back to the At­tendance Office to fill out an Admit Slip, allowing them back into class.

o The 10th Day Absence Policy remains in place and enforced throughout the school year. Please take a moment with your son or daughter and read the new policy. If you have any questions, please call your student’s as­sistant principal. Students with a last name starting with A-K: Jason Frink at 323-5262 Students with a last name starting with L- Z: Kim Lummis at 323-5281. See page 3 for information on the Attendance Policy

o Freshmen and sophomores are not al­lowed to go out to lunch with anyone but that student’s parent. Early dismissals are still needed as well as Admit Slips.

o We understand that emergencies come up and you need to call in an Early Dismissal ASAP. Please understand that we do not have many staff members per hour who can get your student, and the Attendance Office does not have the capa­bility to call into a classroom for the Early Dismissal. Please use discretion when call­ing in an emergency Early Dismissal, and the folks in the Attendance Office will do everything they can to accommodate you.

o We understand that students will forget things at home and will call parents to bring them up to school. However, we are only able to make deliveries at 10 a.m. and at 1 p.m. Please have the item clearly marked and what hour the student needs it by; this will make it easier for delivery. However, students who forget things frequently will be encouraged to wait in the office for the items, therefore missing instruction time. If this were to occur regu­larly, the office will not continue to deliver items to these students

 

o Money that is dropped off for a student will not be delivered. Instead, a note will be sent to the student to pick it up in the front office. The front office is not respon­sible for lunch money that is not picked up by the student.

o All visitors must sign in at the Main/Blue Office and get a visitor’s pass. At times this might seem like an inconve­nience. But our students’ safety is our number-one concern.
