All Students


Students who do not feel well during the school day are to follow these procedures:

 

  • The student must inform a faculty/staff member that they do not feel well

  • They will be directed to the nurse's office

  • The nurse will determine if the student will be sent home

  • If the student is to be sent home, the nurse, and only the nurse, will call the student's parent/guardian to come to the school to pick up the student up. No student should ever text or call their parent/guardian to be picked up early.

  • The student's parent/guardian must present photo ID and sign the student out at the Security Desk in the Main Lobby. Students will not be permitted to leave the building for any reason without a parent or guardian. This policy applies to students who drive to school.

 

If the student will be absent on subsequent days, parents must follow the procedures for reporting absences.
