Attendance is an important part of making sure students thrive in the learning environment.   Students should arrive at school no later than 7:20 am.  Please be aware of the traffic for buses, drop-off, and student parking.  Students who arrive between 7:25-7:30 am will be sent to Period 1 and marked TARDY.  All other students who are late must check into the front office to receive a pass to class.  Students should also turn in early dismissal notes, absence notes, and discretionary absence forms to the front office.  Please note that the window outside the office  is no longer the place to check in and out of school, so students will need to check in with Mrs. Allen or Mrs. Nickles in the main office.  Security is now located in the hallway office and our SRO is located in the area outside of Student Services and the cafeteria.  The gym doors by the student parking lot will be locked at 7:30 am.
