CERTIFICATES OF ENROLLMENT
To obtain a learner’s permit or driver’s license in Georgia, you must present a Certificate of Enrollment. Certificate applications are available in the front office. If the application is turned in before 11:00 a.m., the certificate will be available for pick up after 1:00 p.m. If turned in after 11:00 a.m., the certificate will be ready the next day after 1:00 p.m. The cost for a certificate is $2.00, payable when you pick up the certificate.
CHECK-INS/OUTS/LEAVING CAMPUS (SEE “TARDIES” FOR THE TARDY TO CLASS POLICY)
Students who arrive after the tardy bell will be required to go through the main office to check in. Students are also REQUIRED to check out through the same office, if they leave before the end of 7th period. Students who arrive after the tardy bell will check in with their 1st period teachers until 8:35; students who arrive after 8:35 are required to go through the main office to check in. For a check-in to be excused, a written note from a doctor or parent/guardian stating a legitimate reason for check-in must be delivered to the attendance office on the day of or within two days following the check-in. Notes delivered after five days will not be accepted as excused. Students will be allowed three unexcused check-ins. Once it has been determined that a student has exceeded the unexcused limit, discipline will be issued as follows:
4th – One before/after school detention
5th – One before/after school detention
6th – One day of Saturday School (8:00 – Noon)
7th – One day of in-school suspension
8th – Two days of in-school suspension
9th Or More – 2 days of ISS plus additional ISS or 10 days of parking suspension
Prearranged Check out Procedures:
• On the morning of the day students need to check out, students should bring a note from a parent or legal guardian stating the reason for checking out and giving a telephone number that can be called for verification. (If a parent cannot be reached, the doctor or dentist will be contacted.) Take this note to the front office.
• During the morning, a phone call will be made to verify the permission/need.
• At a designated time, office personnel will clear students to leave campus.
Students may leave only after being cleared by the front office.
• Photo identification is required to check out a student.
**Excused reasons for checking out of school are the same as those for excused absences from school.**
**Students are not allowed in the building or on campus after 4:00 p.m. unless under the direct supervision of a teacher or coach.**
