For afternoon pick-up, enter on Roy Rd and follow the line to pick up your child. Don’t wait in the area designated for bus traffic, and for student safety never drive between buses or turn around in front of them after school.

Students who are picked up by a parent are not dismissed until the buses have left, so we encourage parents to pick up after 3:00 p.m. on regular attendance days.

If your child will be absent, call the school office at 618-684-3527 before 8:00 a.m. and give the reason for the absence. If we haven’t heard from you by 10:00 a.m., the school will call home. Regular attendance matters, so please make every effort to have your child here and ready each morning.

School closings and early dismissals are announced as soon as possible through our phone messaging service and are posted on the district website. You can also check local radio and television stations. Please keep a current phone number on file with the office so you receive these messages.

The district provides bus transportation for students who live 1.5 miles or more from school. At the beginning of the year, parents select one bus stop for pick-up and one for drop-off. Students may only ride their assigned bus; any exception must be approved in advance by the principal.

All medication must be checked in through the school office. A completed School Medication Authorization Form is required before school staff can give any prescription or non-prescription medication.

The building is locked during the school day. Please buzz in at the main door and speak with the office before entering. Visitors sign in and out at the office. Lunches, forgotten homework, and other deliveries should be brought to the office, and we’ll get them to your child.

Keep your child home for a fever of 100.4°F or higher, vomiting, diarrhea, or a contagious illness. Students should be fever-free for 24 hours without fever-reducing medication before returning to school.

Yes. Please arrange treats or snacks with the classroom teacher in advance. Treats must be store-bought, prepackaged, and individually portioned; homemade treats are not allowed.
