Policy Highlight : Security
Security is a priority at The Collegiate School of Memphis. All visitors, including parents, must enter through the front entrance (Faxon Avenue), sign in, and wear a visitor badge when in the building. Visitors must be escorted by their hosts at all times and taken back to the front desk by the host when leaving. Our campus is secured by controlled access entrances and a security guard at all times.
Security of our facilities is a top priority; visitors are encouraged to always be aware of their surroundings, report suspicious activity, and never leave valuable items unattended in their car. The Collegiate School of Memphis assumes no responsibility for student or visitor vehicles or items left unattended in the vehicle. Students driving vehicles to school parks at their own risk.
As an independent school our entire campus is private property. Therefore, government agents and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers do not have access to our campus or our students while they are on our campus without a proper federal judicial warrant. More information and procedures regarding CSM Student Safety and Privacy Policy:Immigration and Law Enforcement Access is available by request in the Business Office.
Important Reminder: Dismissal Procedures
The safety of our students and families during dismissal is our top priority and we ask all parents and students to be patient during the dismissal process at the start of the school year. Parents are able to pick up students on the north and south sides of Faxon Avenue, along the parking lane of National St. and in the parking lot off of National St. behind the Avenue Community Church as described in the image. The center lanes on Faxon Avenue are driving lanes; do not park or pick up students in the driving lanes. Parents are expected to follow all traffic rules and school procedures when picking up your child. Double-parking, blocking driveways, or stopping in undesignated areas creates safety hazards and delays for others.
To help keep dismissal safe and efficient:
Use designated pick up areas and follow staff and security directions.
Remain in your vehicle when in the pickup line.
Avoid double-parking or blocking other cars.
Drive slowly and watch for students crossing.
Thank you for working with us to make sure every student gets home safely.
Uniform Store Hours
The Uniform Store is open before and after school for all your uniform needs. If you need to visit during school hours, you must contact Ms. Alvarado to arrange an appointment. Thank you for following these guidelines so we can serve all families efficiently.
Attendance Policy
As an academically rigorous college-preparatory school, we are committed to keeping students engaged in quality instruction for the entire school day, and we strongly discourage them from missing any classes. Collegiate’s school calendar is available on CSM’s website—please review it when scheduling events or appointments so these can be arranged during student holidays, after school hours, or on one of our teacher in-service days. Students should not be taken out of school unless it is an emergency. Consistent attendance is essential for preparing scholars for college success, so they should be in school every day, all day. We take exam weeks seriously, and students should not be absent during these times. For more details, please review the full attendance policy in the Family Handbook (page 12) so we can work together to ensure every scholar is set up for success.
