Safe Arrival Procedures
Parents, Please Call to
Report Your Child’s Absence
To best ensure the safe arrival of all students we ask you to PLEASE
NOTIFY THE SCHOOL IF A STUDENT IS GOING TO BE ABSENT OR LATE. This will
save a phone call to your home or office. We have an answering service on at
all times when the school is closed. If a child is going to be late or absent,
or if a parent wishes their child to leave school prior to regular dismissal
time, a note should be sent on the day BEFORE the absence whenever
possible. If a student is not in school and his/her absence has not been
explained by a note or telephone call, school office staff will take the
following action:
- Call home.
- Call the parents at work.
- Call the emergency number listed on the student’s
Emergency Form.
- Call the York Regional Police in accordance with our Safe Arrival Policy
Your help is required to make sure your children arrive on time
before 8:55 a.m. and start
their day by entering the school only through their assigned door.
Beginning every morning at 8:45 a.m., students are supervised in the school yard by staff members.
Parents are encouraged to make sure that their children arrive at 8:45 a.m. in order to be on time when the
entry bell rings at 8:55 a.m.
Parents, please ensure the office
has up-to-date contact information!
