Procedures

All parents/guardians are required to enter the building to check their child in and out of the SACC program. In order to verify who is picking up, each child's parents must enter the Multipurpose Room door to sign their child in/out. Parents/guardians must wait for the child to gather his/her belonging and walk out with the child. This is for the safety of the children and is also a licensing requirement. The State of Colorado Department of Human Services mandates this process and accompanying records. Therefore, only adults may check children in or out of the SACC program.

Each individual authorized to pick up your child must have a unique PIN to identify who is picking up or dropping off the child. This PIN has been assigned for primary guardians by SchoolCare Works.This PIN should not be shared between individuals authorized to pick up. You may add any authorized person to your child’s SchoolCare Works account by going into your parent portal. After you have added an individual, they must use their unique PIN.

Release of Children

Parents/guardians must communicate, in writing any schedule changes, changes in who will be picking up their child, or other pertinent information. Program staff must have written authorization from the parent or guardian to release a child to an individual not listed in the child’s SchoolCare Works account, or Infinite Campus. Verbal permission is not acceptable authorization. In the event that a person who is not listed on the child’s emergency records or someone the parent/guardian has not provided written permission for, attempts to pick up a child, we will contact the parent/guardian. If we cannot reach a parent or guardian, the child will not be released. Law Enforcement will be notified of any unauthorized pick up attempt that is not corroborated by parents/guardians of the child in question.

Staff will ID ANY person they are unfamiliar with; please bring your ID. Only authorized adults who are listed on the child’s enrollment records or in Infinite Campus will be allowed to pick up a child from SACC.

Under NO circumstance is any child allowed to walk home unattended from the SACC program.

Before School Procedures

Students attending the before school care program will be released from the multipurpose room by a SACC staff member at 7:35am (8:35 on Wednesdays) to walk to their classrooms.

After School Procedures

Students attending the after school care program will be released from their teachers at 2:43pm. Kindergarten teachers will drop their students off in the multipurpose room a little before the bell. 1st and 2nd graders will be collected by a SACC staff member from their hallway. Grades 3rd-5th will meet a SACC staff member in the gym immediately following their release (an announcement will be made if there is a change and we need to meet in the MPR).

SACC staff will check students in and ensure all students are accounted for. If a student is missing, SACC staff will work with building administration to locate the missing student (checking the bus, completing a building all call, checking with after school clubs, etc.). Parents will be contacted if the student is not immediately located. It is important that families communicate all after school schedule changes to the program manager no later than 2:00pm.
