To ensure the safety of all students, a valid photo ID must be presented each time a student is checked out. The ID will be verified against the authorized contact information listed in eSchool before a student is released. This verification is required every time, with no exceptions.

If you need to add or remove someone from your student's authorized pickup list, you must complete and submit the appropriate form to the school office. For security reasons, changes to authorized pickup information cannot be made over the phone. Thank you for your cooperation as we work to keep our students safe.
