Safe Arrival Procedures

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!
