Dear Parent/Guardian:
As we enter the second trimester of the school year, we need your help and understanding
to enhance our learning environment and ensure the safety of every student.
Effective
immediately, we have made the following revisions to our early dismissal system to more
efficiently manage our increased enrollment and more effectively honor our commitment to
you to provide a secure school climate.
NEW EARLY DISMISSAL PROCEDURES
WRITTEN REQUEST:
On the day before the dismissal from school, or before first period on the day of an
early dismissal, a student must bring to the attendance clerk’s table in the gym lobby a
written request that includes the following information:
• date and time of early dismissal
• reason for dismissal
• name of parent/guardian to contact
• phone number of parent/guardian to contact for verification.
LOGISITICS:
• The student will receive a standard dismissal note signed by staff indicating
the date and time of dismissal.
• At the beginning of class, the student should share the dismissal note with the
teacher.
• At the approved dismissal time, the student will be allowed to come to the
office to sign out provided the original note was verified by MTS staff.
SIGN OUT:
• The parent/guardian or approved designee must sign out a student for early
dismissal. Students may not sign themselves out.
• A parent/guardian who did not request prior approval, but arrives at school to
sign out a student will be asked to wait until the end of a class period.
• No early dismissals will be allowed after 2:00 PM.
Thank you in advance for your help with this new procedure.
please contact me at 485-8304.
Sincerely,
Vicki Lete
Principal
