Early Pickup
Students may not leave campus during the school day without being signed out by a parent. Sign out must happen by 2:25pm (1:10 on Wednesdays).
Students will not be pulled from class during the last 15 minutes of instruction even if it is for an appointment, please come with enough time as early pickup times can get busy.
Student Attendance Review Board (SARB)
Regular attendance is vital for successful learning. According to state law, students are considered truant when they have 3 or more unexcused absences and/or 3 tardies of 30 minutes or more without a valid excuse. A letter will be sent to parents of students who are considered truant. In addition, a copy of the letter will be filled in the student's CUM. Students who are habitually truant may be referred to SARB.
