A few updates for things being dropped off for students throughout the day.
We will not call students to pick up their lunch and/or any other non-emergency items before 11:25.
Parents are responsible for labeling their child's things. Everyone's items will be on the same table. School employees will not be responsible for making sure the student gets the correct items.
Moving forward we will call all students at 11:25 to let them know they may grab their items on the way to lunch. We will not allow them to get the items before the first lunch bell, even if the student is already aware of the delivery. All items will be moved outside the office, in the hall at 11:15.
We will stop allowing lunches to be dropped off at 11:00 for A lunch. If the student has B lunch they can drop off until 12:00. Please keep in mind if the student has classes in the annex they will have to walk from the annex to the high school and then to the cafeteria. Once again this will happen during their lunch period. They will not be allowed to leave class early to get their things.
If an item is dropped off after the cut off time ; we will call their 8th period class at 4:00 to let them know to grab it after the last bell rings at 4:05.
