  • Late Student Pick Up

    Overview

    • Scope: These guidelines apply to all students within the district and cover procedures following the regular dismissal time and after the conclusion of any school-sponsored activities.

    • Late Pickup: Any pickup occurs more than 15 minutes after dismissal or activity conclusion. 
    • Authorized Pickup: Individuals designated by the parent/guardian are verified through photo ID, including emergency contacts. 

    Responsibilities 

    • Principals: Principals are responsible for communicating these procedures to their school community, including parents, guardians, students and staff who support dismissal from school and activities outside the school day. Principals are also responsible for designating staff who have access to contact information for parents, guardians, and emergency contacts, as well as Attendance Logs, to supervise students who are not picked up on time. Finally, Principals are responsible for reviewing repeated incidents each semester and meeting with parents or guardians to address the issue and implement a plan of action.

    • Parents/Guardians: Are required to provide and maintain accurate, up-to-date emergency contact information and authorized pickup lists. They are also responsible for adhering to the pickup times set by the school. 

    Procedure 

    Fifteen minutes after the scheduled dismissal time or scheduled conclusion of the school activity, designated school staff should initiate the late pick-up procedure. Throughout this procedure, the designated staff are responsible for monitoring and supervising students in a safe area, such as the main office.
