Accidents and Illness Whenever a serious accident or illness occurs, the school will contact the parents or call for assistance at the emergency number listed on the health information sheet. It is extremely important that parents return the health information sheet to the school. Please keep the school office informed of any address or telephone number changes. In extreme emergencies, if the parents or the emergency number cannot be reached, the school will assume the responsibility to contact the paramedics. For health and safety reasons, sick children will not be sent home until parents come to school and check them out. Addressing Concerns at School Occasionally questions or concerns may surface regarding your child's educatonal experience. We ask that parents follow the following procedures to answer or solve those concerns. 2. If after visiting with the teacher jthe problem cannot be resolved, please feel free to contact Mr. Roper to help mediate the problem. Attendance Regular attendance is critical for the educational success of children. It is extremely important for your child to be at school every day, except in cases of illness. Please do not keep your child out of school to baby sit, shop, etc. Although we do not require you to call the school when your child is absentl, we do ask that you send a note to school when your child returns which briefly explains the child's absence. Bikes, Scooters, Skateboards, and Roller Blades Children may ride bicycles/scooters to school. Bikes & scooters must be placed in the racks located on the west and east side of the school. The school cannot be responsible for bike security. We suggest that students lock their bikes and scooters to prevent theft. Scooters are considered the same as bicycles and must not be brought in the building. Bikes and scooters are NOT to be ridden on school grounds before, during, or after school. Skateboards and Roller Blades are not allowed at school.

Check Out of Students For safety and legal concerns, parents MUST come into the school to pick up their children if they need to check them out during school hours. Students wil be called to the office after parents or guardians have signed the check out log. Please do not ask over the telephone to have your child sent home. Parents should not call to ask that their children meet them outside. Please plan ahead to allow time to check your children out of school. Your cooperation of this SAFETY policy is appreciated.
