When checking in and out of school:

If a parent requests for their student to leave campus, they must send a note and the student must sign in and out through the high school office. The office will call to verify the note.

If a parent wishes to pick up their high school student, they must come in and sign their student in and out through the high school office. We cannot accept phone calls. This is for the safety of all of our students. Thanks for caring about our students.

All library books will be due no later than Thursday, May 20th. Fines for lost books will also be due- be sure to return the cord and cover along with the Kindle. Remember final report cards and next year's schedule will not be processed until all fines are paid.

Student attendance is very important. If you have 3 unexcused absences, this violates the state attendance law. This will result in going to court for not attending school. If you miss 9 days a semester, you are not at school enough to earn the credits required by the state and will have to repeat the courses you have taken and will result in a court appearance.

Students are not allowed to be at the bus barn at anytime of the day.
