When a student is absent for any reason, the parent is expected to notify the school at 952­-232-­3019. Please provide your child’s name, teacher’s name, classroom name and section, and reason for the absence.

To ensure a safe and smooth arrival and dismissal process, we kindly ask that all students be dropped off and picked up outside the school building.
Parents and guardians should wait outside with their child until the teacher arrives at the designated door at the designated time to welcome the class inside. Please do your best to arrive on time to help keep the parking lot flowing smoothly and avoid congestion. If your child arrives after their class's designated time, please check in at the front desk. A staff member will then walk your child to their classroom.

We appreciate your cooperation in helping us maintain a secure and organized start and end to each school day. If you have any questions about your child’s designated door or time, please contact your child’s teacher.

Your child will only be released to parents or an authorized person listed on your Authorized Pick Up information. Staff are required to ask for identification from anyone unfamiliar attempting to pick up a child. If an unauthorized person attempts to pick up your child, you will be contacted. If you can’t be reached, your child will be held until you or your emergency contact person arrives.

When filling out your family profile you must list persons authorized to pick up your child from school. You will need to manage authorized pick ups for each child on your account separately. Please have two back­up people that your child may be released to if you are not able to pick up your child.

We recognize that it is legal for either parent to pick up a child unless we have a copy of a court order restricting visitations.

Copies of legal documents must be provided to the program office before any staff person can actively prevent non­custodial parents from picking up their child.

All children must be picked up on time from their classes. If an emergency delays you and you are going to be late picking up your child, please make plans for another person on your authorized pick up list to pick up your child on time, and call program staff immediately.

In the event that your child is still at school after class dismisses and we have not heard from you, we will take the following steps (in order):

• Attempt to reach you at home or work.
• Call the people listed as additional persons authorized to pick up your child.
• If you are more than 30 minutes late, the police will be contacted for assistance.
• Please note that for every minute your child is picked up late after final dismissal time, a $1/minute fee will be billed to you through Eleyo and needs to be paid during the next billing cycle. You will be notified of this charge in writing by school staff.
