Dismissal Procedures
Many Middle School students are "Walkers" and have permission to simply walk home at the end of the school day. However, the majority of elementary students are "Pick-Ups" and are dismissed to a parent or a designated adult (Dismissal Procedures Form) to be escorted home
Parents indicate on First Day Forms, which are updated annually, whether their child is to be designated as a “pick-up” or “walker”. They can also indicate, through Parent Portal in Genesis, pick up rights for any of their contacts.
