DOWNTOWN AND OTHER LEAVES POLICY
Leaves may be secured by presenting a note from your parent or legal guardian. Notes from brothers, sisters, relatives, etc. are NOT VALID as these people have no legal responsibility for you.
During class time, leaves will be granted for exceptional reasons - doctor's appointment, drivers license appointment, etc. - only. At lunch time, leave will be granted for whatever reasons parents wish to stipulate.
In all cases, the student leaving must sign the sheet in the Office and leave the note before he/she may leave. He/she must also sign in upon return. Students leaving for home early must bring a note and sign out before they leave.
Students who live in town and are not transported by bus may go home at lunch time; however, they are required to sign out in the Office before they leave and to sign in when they return.
Parents who pick up children during the day are asked to sign them out in the Office before they leave. This applies to children of ALL grades.
ONLY Grade 9-12 Students may be given the permission for the year to go uptown during lunch hour. Permission can be given by logging on to the Parent Portal and reviewing the Uptown Leave Form. If Permission has not been granted online, students will not be allowed to leave the school without a call or note. NO OTHER GRADES ARE ALLOWED TO GO UPTOWN DURING THE SCHOOL DAY UNLESS GOING WITH THEIR CLASSROOM.
