Keeping strangers and unauthorized persons out of our hallways and classrooms is a top priority at MILLER. In addition, it is critical that the campus be dedicated to teaching your children and that distractions from this goal be kept to an absolute minimum.
Office Check-In: Visitors will continue to be checked in by the office check-in system. It helps protect your children by tracking visitors and volunteers at our school, thus providing a safer, more monitored environment for students. When you enter the building, you must check in at the main office and wear a Visitor’s Badge. When visitors and volunteers check-in, or parents come to pick up students, they will be asked to present a valid state issued ID for entering into the system. The system has the ability to provide alerts on people who may jeopardize the safety of our campus. Each person will need to have their valid state ID scanned one time into the system. We feel certain this will help us keep our campus safer, and ask for your cooperation in presenting your valid state issued ID when checking in at our campus. This is a FISD mandated policy.
No exceptions – whether you are volunteering or having lunch with your child, you must check in and get a sticker! This includes when checking your children out of school – Please go to the office first, and personnel will assist you. Only the main door is open for entry during school hours. If you are seen in the halls without a Visitor’s Badge, a staff member will stop to escort you to the office to get you signed in. Remember, this is for your own child’s protection.
Appointments and Visits: While we always welcome visits from parents, life at school with approximately 700+ students is always busy. While we certainly understand the need for the occasional “dropping by”, we ask that you arrange for office and classroom visits in advance. Classroom volunteering is addressed below.
If you would like to schedule a conference with your child’s teacher, please email or call him or her. The teacher will promptly respond with 24 hours. We appreciate your cooperation in not interrupting teachers during instructional or planning times – this includes the time right before school begins, before and after lunch, and before the end of the day.
We understand that many of you enjoy walking your dog to and from school with your children. We certainly want to encourage families walking to and from school. This helps tremendously with traffic congestion and promotes lifelong healthy habits. However, many children are afraid of dogs and many are allergic to various types of animals. In addition, even dogs with sweet dispositions can snap unexpectedly when children are around. Pets on campus also add to the already heavy supervisory loads that teachers have while on duty. Many of us are animal lovers, but the welfare of our kids is paramount. We thank you for not bringing your pets on campus.
