We Can't Do This Without You

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA)

Attention families: The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), a Federal law, requires that a school with certain exceptions obtain your written consent prior to the disclosure of personally identifiable information from your child’s education records. However, a school may disclose appropriately designated “directory information” without written consent, unless you have advised the school to the contrary in accordance with school district procedures. The primary purpose of directory information is to allow schools to include information from your child’s education records in certain school publications.

Parents who wish to opt their students out of directory information releases must complete an Opt-Out Form for each of their students, and must return each form to the school at which each student is enrolled by November 6, 2023.

Emergency Contact Information

It is extremely important to keep all phone numbers and addresses up to date in the office. Please see the office staff at anytime to update all contact information.

Visiting Classrooms

Parents should make an appointment to visit their child’s classroom. All visitors are required to wear an identifying badge when in the building. Visitors in the building without badges will be asked to return to the Main Office for an appropriate badge.

Immunizations

All students mus be properly immunized against communicable diseases. The nurse will contact parents if students need to update required shots. Students will not be allowed to return to school until they have been properly immunized.

Detentions

In an attempt to stress constructive citizenship and improve academic performance, teachers may require your child to remain after school up to 45 minutes on a given day for misbehavior. Under no circumstances will your child be required to remain after school for more than 45 minutes on a given day without first notifying a parent/guardian. If your child cannot stay after school, you must notify his/her teacher or the Dean of Students so that a detention can be completed at another time.

Textbooks and School Materials

Textbooks and other materials that are loaned to students by the school must be returned at the end of the school year. Books and materials must be paid for when lost or damaged. Books and materials inspections will occur monthly and parents will be notified of any incurred costs due to loss or damage.
