Medical Alerts

Please see the Parent/Guardian Medical Alert Planning Guide. For any medications that need to be administered at school, a Medical Form signed by a physician is required.
Attendance Policies
SafeArrival Program (School Messenger App)
One of our greatest priorities is ensuring that all of our students arrive safely to school every day. To improve our safe arrival process, we are adding a new system that will make it easier for parents to report and respond to school absences of your child.
The new student absence reporting system will let you use a mobile app, website, or an interactive toll-free phone line to report an absence in advance. As a result, it will take the school less time to verify student attendance, and less time to begin to notify parents and guardians of absences that were unexpected or unplanned.
This time savings makes it faster and more efficient to account for all students and their safety.
If your student has been marked absent and the absence hasn't been explained in advance, our new SafeArrival system will be able to rapidly contact you by automated phone call, text message, email, or mobile app push notification to get a reason for the absence. Calls and contacts will continue until you choose an option to explain the absence.
This new automated SafeArrival process is part of our SchoolMessenger notification system from West, and our new SchoolMessenger mobile app for iOS and Android devices. It'll be available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to make it convenient for you to report future absences.
