Checking In/Out Repeated:
Check ins/check outs are monitored by the
Attendance Office. The administrator may monitor the student’s checking out,
place the student on restrictions, or use some other alternative. A student who
checks in/out of school five or more times in a semester may have his/her
parking privileges revoked at any time or not be given permits to make-up
work.
Checking Out:
Once a student arrives on campus, he/she must check out
through the Attendance Office. Contact with the parent will be required before
a student is released. Parents checking students out will be required to present
identification. Parents will not be permitted to check out students after 1:40
pm. Students leaving without checking out are considered truant, even if the
school day has not yet begun. Truant students will not be allowed to make up
any work and will face disciplinary measures. Students who check out or
attempt to check out under a false pretense will be subject to disciplinary
action.
Check Outs/Emergency:
Students who leave school during the day due to
illness or emergency must follow routine check out procedures. Only parents
or guardians may give permission for a student’s release from school. No
student may be released prior to contact with a parent either in person or by
telephone. Alternate numbers listed on the student clinic card are for
emergency purposes only, not for routine checking out.
Check Outs/Pre-Planned:
If a student has a note from the parent requesting
permission for the student to leave school for an appointment, the students
should present the note to the Attendance Office prior to the beginning of first
period so that the appointment can be confirmed. The student must report back
to the Attendance Office to sign out at the appropriate time. If the parent
intends to pick up the student, no note is necessary. However, the student must
present proof of the medical appointment upon return to school in order for
schoolwork to be made up. A receipt for services will be sufficient.
Funerals:
If a parent/guardian wishes for a student to check out to attend a
funeral, he or she should write a note and it should be turned in to the
Attendance Office prior to first period. A parent will be contacted to verify the
note.
