Rules and Regulations - To and from School
We must know where the student is at all times. They may not leave school without permission.
The following rules apply to all students:
- Daily routine – there is a warning bell five minutes before the beginning of morning school, end of morning break and before the beginning of afternoon school. This warning bell is a signal to move towards the classroom.
- If you need to leave during the school day for an appointment, or because you have become sick, you must sign out at the student office. If you are sick the Student Office will contact your parents. If you return to school that day you must sign back in again before you return to class.
