Dismissal - End-of-Day

In order to ensure the safety of your child at all times, the school will maintain a list of authorized people to pick up your child at the end of the day. A written note from home will be required before students can be released to anyone not on the list.
 

Dismissal - Early

Parents or their designated representatives who are picking up students prior to normal dismissal time should go directly to the campus office, sign a custody assumption log, and receive a dismissal slip from the office. People not known by sight to office personnel should be prepared to show picture identification. Office personnel shall also verify the individual is on the authorized list. The dismissal slip should then be given to the classroom teacher who shall then dismiss the student from class.

Dismissal - Weather Related

In case of inclement weather, school will be dismissed the same as the Danville City School System. Around 6:00 am, a decision usually is made concerning the dismissal of school or a one or two hour delay.

Then the following media outlets are advised of their decision:

WLEX - Channel 18 TV
WKYT - Channel 27 TV
WTVQ - Channel 36 TV

For those of you who have a long drive from outside the city, if you do not feel comfortable driving, by all means do not attempt to do so. The teachers will allow any work missed due to road conditions to be made up when your child does return to school.

If school needs to be dismissed during the day due to threatening weather, then the above media stations will be called and a cancellation announcement will be made.

If you do not hear the announcement, fifteen minutes after the dismissal time a call will be made to your home or other number provided.
