School Procedures • Arrival/Dismissal • Doors are unlocked at 7:30. • If you arrive at 7:50 or later, go to the office to get a tardy slip. • If your child is going home a different way, call the office by 2:45pm or send a note in your child’s folder in the morning. • If your child is absent, please send a written and signed note stating why your child was absent.
