Changes in Transportation
• If your child is to go home a different way, you must send a note or call the office to let us know of the change. If we do not receive a note, or you don’t call the office to notify of us, we must send them home the way they usually go home.

Absences and Tardies
• If your child is absent from school, please send a note or Dr’s excuse within 3 days of the absence. The office must have this documentation on file.
• Please make sure your child gets to school on time. Our district policy requires an over-night suspension due to excessive tardies.
