For safety reasons, doors will be locked throughout the day.

Visitors MUST sign in at the school office.

Information calendars will be sent home monthly to notify parents about important dates and upcoming school events.

-
Please read the Code of Acceptable Behavior and the School Discipline Plan carefully. Both have forms to sign and return to school.
Attendance
-
Regular and punctual attendance is ESSENTIAL for success in school. Low attendance and tardiness affects a student's academic achievement and social development.
-
Regular and punctual attendance is also required by Kentucky law (please refer to the Code of Acceptable Behavior you student received).
-
Students that arrive after 8:05 a.m. or leave early will be counted tardy. Depending on the time, students may be counted absent for up to 1/2 day if they are checked out early. These times are monitored by our attendance software and cannot be changed.
-
Please remember to call the school before 9:00 a.m. if your child will not be in attendance for the day (527-1581). Absences not called in will have to be considered unexcused.
-
If your child is absent and you wish to call in for class assignments, they will be ready to be picked up in the front office after 2:00 in the afternoon. This gives us time to get everything ready.
Car Riders/Transportation
-
For your child's safety, any person other than the parent who is allowed to pick up a child MUST be listed on the child's pick-up card kept on file in the office.
-
If specific people ARE NOT allowed to pick up a child, please list those names on the back of the child's pick-up card.
-
Copies of legal documents MUST be on file in the school office if a child is not to be allowed to leave with either parent.
-
If someone is to pick up your child and their name IS NOT listed on the pick-up card, a note must be sent to school that morning stating who will be picking up the child. That note must be approved before the child will be allowed to leave.
-
Car riders are dismissed at 3:00. Parents need to be waiting for them at that time in the driveway in front of the cafeteria (the West entrance facing Hwy. 641). Doors will be locked until dismissal time.
-
A note must also be sent if the student is going to ride a different bus than they normally ride.
-
Car riders not picked up by 3:10 will be taken back into the building and parents will need to enter the building and pick them up in the office.
-
When bringing car riders in the morning, please use the West entrance. Your cooperation is needed-cars cannot drop off students at the front door due to continuous bus traffic.
We are looking forward to a great school year! I want to personally invite you to visit our school, volunteer your time and efforts, and join our PTO. It is important that we WORK TOGETHER to help our students achieve their fullest potential!
Sincerely,
Chuck Blanchard
