STUDENT RELEASE PRECAUTIONS

All school personnel are to refuse requests for children to leave the school grounds once they have come to the school or have been deposited there from the school buses or other vehicles. Children shall remain on school grounds from the time they arrive until the time of their departure for home except as follows:
1. No school or grade shall be dismissed before the regular hour for dismissal except with the approval of the Office of the Superintendent of Schools.
2. No staff member shall permit any individual student to leave school prior to the regular hour of dismissal except by permission of the Principal or his/her designee.
3. No student may be permitted to leave school prior to the dismissal hour for any reason unless permission of the parent or guardian has been first secured, nor sent home unless a responsible adult is at the home. Any student being released during the school day must be released through the school office when he/she leaves and must report to the office when he/she returns, except that students who are ill may also be released through the Nurse’s office*(refer to EBBC). Students will be released only when legally authorized by the parent or guardian. Students traveling on school buses to school-sponsored activities will return from the activity on the bus unless released to their parents only.
