EARLY DISMISSAL REQUESTS
EARLY RELEASE FOR APPOINTMENTS
We understand that at times, it may be difficult to schedule doctor/dentist/other appointments after school hours. WIth this in mind, and in an effort to ensure that your student in the classroom learning as long as possible; and taking into account the time that it can potentially take to find your student and have them in the main office in time for pick up, we ask that you please call ahead of time to request the student’s release from class. We ask for at least a 30 minute advance call for release, so that an Early Dismissal Pass can be delivered. Please note that if the student is in PE, it may take longer to reach the student and we also have to account for the time it may take him/her to change.
Also, if someone other than the parent is picking up the student, please provide us with the NAME & RELATIONSHIP to the student in advance. We will NOT be able to release to anyone other than the parent without your consent.
As a courtesy, we have also shared the Early Release handbook section below.
Thank you for your understanding. We strive to work together with parents to make your students successful at Plano High School!
From the Student handbook:

Released or Late due to Appointment
If a student needs to be excused during the school day, the parent/guardian can call the attendance office with student’s name and ID number as well as reason for dismissal. The student must check out through the attendance office. Failure to check out properly could result in disciplinary consequences. Please be prepared to provide the following: A. Student’s full name and grade B. Type of appointment C. Time to be released D. Time of return E. In order for an absence to be excused, documentation from the doctor or court appointment must be given to the attendance office upon return to school.
Avoid your cell phone being taken away!
Avoid a detention and most importantly, don't miss on valuable LEARNING time! Be on time to class and school! Detentions do accumulate, so be sure to serve your detention.
Parents will receive an email and text reminder. Students will receive an orange slip during the school day to remind them about their detention.
