Policy and Procedure Review  (All text in italics is directly from the AVS Student Handbook.) 

Absences  - Parents/Guardians are required to notify the school on those days when their child is going to be absent. The preferred method of notification is to use PickUp Patrol.

You can also call the school office at 483-2769 after 7:30 am or leave a message on the office voicemail. 

Early Dismissal  - If it is necessary for a student to leave school during the day, he/she must have permission in Pick Up Patrol by the parent or guardian stating the time of dismissal and the individual who will be providing transportation. Please use Pick-Up Patrol for early dismissals. At the time the student is being dismissed, he/she should wait in his/her classroom until being called to report to the main office for checkout. The person authorized to pick up the student is required to report to the main office to sign-out the student. In the event of an emergency, a dismissal request may be made by phone, but the sign-out procedure remains the same. Students will not be allowed to wait outside under any circumstances.

All After School Activities - After school Activities including Choir, Art Club, DI, and other school-run clubs: On days that your child is participating in an after-school activity, please indicate that the student will stay after school and list their activity in Pick Up Patrol. Please do so even if you have signed a permission slip for the club itself, as that permission slip does NOT  prompt an update into Pick Up Patrol for the classroom teacher. 

Vacation Absences - Absences for family vacations or other discretionary reasons are discouraged, because much of the classroom experience cannot be made up.  Students who are absent due to family vacations or extended vacations are required to obtain their missing work from teachers when they return to school.  Work will not be provided ahead of time.  Any such absences should be discussed in advance with the principal.   

See email for Dr. Lori Collins on this list. Please also let the classroom teacher know, and put the dates into PIck Up Patrol. 

Birthdays and Invitations - In respect to all students, to protect privacy and ensure safety and security, invitations to private parties cannot be distributed on school grounds. Staff cannot release the address and/or telephone numbers of our students. In addition, we recommend that parents refrain from sending special deliveries (ex: balloons, flowers) to their children at school. Deliveries such as this interrupt the classroom and the learning environment.

We understand that second graders are making friends and may want to have contact information from another student.  During the first several weeks of school, we will create a Bloomz post where every parent can share the contact information that they wish to share with everyone else who is a part of our grade two grade level group. In this way, you can find out how to contact  parents who have decided to share their info.
