Walkers
Walker Procedures:
Only students who live within the immediate area of the school and have a “Walker Permission Form” on file in the school office may be walkers on a regular basis. This form must be updated annually.
Students will be escorted by a teacher and released to a parent/adult in the designated area for walkers to exit the campus. Walker tag must be present to claim the student.
In the event of inclement weather, we will send a text by 1:45 p.m. via RenWeb that all walkers will be carpool. The change will stay in place even if the weather clears.
