Early Dismissal Guidelines

Early dismissals must be in writing and include the date, student's legal name, reason for early dismissal, and a phone number to contact the parent/guardian for verification. The note must be brought to the Attendance Office before the student goes to 1st period. Once verified, the parent/guardian will NOT need to come into the school to check the student out.

If the early dismissal note is not given to the Attendance Office prior to the student going to 1st period, or if an early dismissal note is not sent at all, the parent/guardian will be required to come to the Attendance Office to check the student out. Parent/Guardian must present ID before the student can be released.

Early dismissals for medical reasons are considered "Unexcused" until an original medical note is submitted to the Attendance Office.

EARLY DISMISSALS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED BY FAX OR PHONE CALL!
