Tutorial & Early Dismissal

Early Dismissal Procedures 

  • All students must be signed-out, INSIDE the front office by parent, legal guardian, or other person identified during registration.  
  • Early dismissal ends at 3:30PM daily 

If your child needs to be picked up before the end of the school day for a planned appointment, please complete the following steps: 

  • Send your child with a hand-written note about the early dismissal and include the reason for the early dismissal and the time they will be picked up 
  • Your child must bring this note to the main office and they will receive an “Early Dismissal” pass to report back to the main office at the time of departure.  
  • Please avoid early dismissal during your child’s scheduled lunch time as they will not be able to get back into a teacher’s classroom until lunch is over to get their belongings.  
  • Helpful hint:  email the teacher your child has at the time of the early dismissal to give them a head's up so they can remind your child.
