Talk to your child and have a plan in place if needed in case of an emergency during school hours.
If your plan includes giving permission for your child to be able to be picked up by a person other than yourself, this MUST be on file in the school office.
Have personal identification to verify who you are when requested.
Parent Reminders:
- Do not panic.
- Refrain from calling your child; depending on the circumstance you could be placing them in danger of being detected by the ringing phone.
- Reinforce with your children that in an emergency it is important for students to follow the directions of the staff and to not try to leave school grounds on their own.
- Be aware that students that do not follow the given directions and act independently, consequences will follow.
- Please – Wait for communication by the school to you about the situation. Do not call 911, or the school, or come to the school.
