Our
Parent Volunteer Resource room is open to all Parent's any day. The

What is the school`s policy regarding parties for students?
Birthday
parties are not allowed at school. Feel free to send a special snack
such as cupcakes or ice cream for the class to be consumed during
regular snack time. Parents, please communicate with your child's
teacher in the agenda regarding your plans for party snacks, etc.
If
I need my child picked up by someone other than myself or my child
needs to ride the bus home or a different bus to another location, what
do I need to do?
It
is important the school properly verify that a parent or legal guardian
has given their permission before a child is allowed to leave school
with anyone or by alternate transportation. Please notify the school in
writing if your child is supposed to use some alternate means of
transportation (include a telephone number so that school officials can
verify the information if they think it is necessary). In the event of
an emergency, you may contact the school at 770-214-8848 and discuss
alternate arrangements with the school secretary. School officials may
require confirmation from some other person on the child's blue card if
deemed necessary before any child is released to a non-designated
person (please make sure you have completed the section on the blue
card which identifies those who have your permission to pick up your
child).
What if my child has a problem at school or on the bus?
If
you are concerned about a discipline problem at school, then please
contact the school at 770-214-8848 and discuss your concerns with the
appropriate school personnel. Faculty and/or staff members should be
contacted initially in order to alleviate problems at school. If there
are problems with bus discipline, you should discuss this with your
child's bus driver. However, if problems persist, then the Principal or
Assistant Principal of the school should be contacted.
How do I know if school has been canceled due to bad weather?
The
local media will be notified if school needs to be canceled due to bad
weather. We suggest that you listen to radio station WBTR (92.1 FM)
and/or television station Channel 11 for details concerning closings.
