Releasing Students During the School Day

Once a child reaches school, it is the school’s obligation to keep the student until dismissal. If a student becomes ill during the school day, the principal or their designee must excuse the student, and a parent or guardian will need to pick the child up.

If a student needs to be released from school for a dental or medical appointment during the day, the parent/guardian must come to the school office and sign out the child before the student is released. The parent/guardian must provide a driver’s license or photo ID in order to pick up the student. A note to the classroom teacher stating the time and reason for the release would be appreciated.
