Early Dismissals

Early Dismissals

My student needs to leave school early. How do I arrange?

To ensure we are able to process your request in time, we encourage all families to submit these early dismissal requests as early as possible. Depending on when you submit your request, you will have to make this request in one of two ways.  

  • For Early Dismissals requested two hours in advance:
    • Email [email protected] from the email account associated with your ParentVUE account.
  • Place your student’s LAST NAME, FIRST NAME, and EARLY DISMISSAL in the subject line.
    • Example: SMITH, JOHN - EARLY DISMISSAL
  • In the body of the email:
    • Provide your child’s first name, last name, grade and Student ID.
    • In the body of the email:
      • Provide your child’s first name, last name, and grade.
      • Provide the date(s) and time of the dismissal.
      • Provide the reason for the absence.
        • Examples of an excused absence may include, but are not limited to, the following reasons: illness (including mental health and substance use illnesses), injury, funeral for immediate family member, student’s legal obligations, medical procedures, suspensions, religious observances, military obligation, deployment of a military family member, or visit from a family member who has immediately returned from deployment, emergency conditions in the student’s home, or other reason deemed acceptable by the principal.
  • For emergency early dismissals requested less than two hours in advance.
    • Families will need to come in person to make this request.
    • Those coming to pick up the student will need to have a state issued ID.
    • Only those listed in our student information system as “release to” may pick up a student.

Please note: In order to prepare for a safe and orderly student dismissal, we do not process in-person early dismissal after 1:30PM to allow our staff to move into their duty positions.
