Student Absences

Please make sure to verify your student's absences. It is considered unexcused without a phone call, email or note. Please call 358-5700, email the office at mccormackb@alpenaschools.com, or log onto your Parentvue account to excuse them.

Dismissal/Bus Route 

If you have a change in plans that you need to notify your child of regarding end-of-the-day bus/pick-up, please call the office before 3:30 p.m. This allows us time to relay messages and prepare a smooth transition to the end-of-the-day procedures. 

Parents, please call the office for any changes in your child's bussing situation. You may not write notes for the bus drivers to follow. In order for bus drivers to make a change they have to receive a note from the office staff so they know that this has been approved by parents or guardians. 

***To check your student's bus route information

Go to ParentVue using the app or website, select student info. Then scroll to the bottom and click additional information for their bus routing schedule provided by day as well as AM and PM. If it is incorrect or needs to be changed then there is automated transportation request on the first page at the bottom of ParentVue.

Parent Drop-Off or Pick-Up

If your child is getting dropped off late or being picked up early we ask that you please come into the office to sign them in or out to make sure that information is accurately being put into Synergy accounts. 

If you are dropping off or picking up your child from the pick-up line please refrain from exiting your vehicle. If it is necessary for you to get out of the vehicle please pull into a parking space so we continue the flow of traffick and keep everyone safe.

Emergency Drills

Michigan State law requires a school to schedule five fire drills, two tornado drills, and three school safety/security drills (e.g., lockdown, shelter in place, etc.). These drills will occur throughout the school year. We will be having drills starting this week. Please discuss with your child the importance of following all safety procedures and protocols as we participate in these very important drills.  We practiced a fire drill and tornado drill this week at Wilson.
