Children requiring an early dismissal must be signed out in the office. The following procedures are intended for the well-being and safety of all SSPPS children:
- A Photo ID is required and will be reviewed before a student will be released during the school day.
- Teachers will not release children from class unless requested from the office.
- Children will be called to the office to meet parents/guardians or those individuals listed on the student’s non-household relationship list to be dismissed early for a pre-arranged appointment during the school day.
- For the protection of your child, teachers must have a note from the parent or guardian each time you are requesting your child be dismissed early from school.
- In the event of an emergency, please notify the office as soon as possible.
If a grade level event is scheduled at the end of the school day and a parent/guardian wants to take their child home after the event but before the official end of the school day, instructions will be given by the school prior to the event. The teacher will then submit the sign-out form to the office immediately at the end of the day. (Please refer to the list of excused and unexcused tardies and absence reasons noted above.) No student will be allowed to leave the building with a non-custodial or unauthorized adult.
