Absence Note Form

Early Check Out Notice

Please be mindful, early check-outs may interfere with your child’s learning.  We ask that students not be checked out early unless they have medical appointments that cannot be scheduled for after school hours. Should check-out of a child be necessary, all guests requesting to enter the building should be prepared to show a photo I.D. The child will then be called to the front office.  The latest that you may check out a student is 1:30 pm.
