Students are expected to be in school, in person, every day. They are expected to arrive on time by 8:00 AM, and remain in school until dismissal at 2:10 PM. Early pick up for personal reasons, including doctors appointments that otherwise could be scheduled after school hours, are strongly discouraged.
There is no early pickup for any reason, other than a family emergency, after 1:00 PM.
Please note, family trips that result in missed instructional time, including extended vacations, count as absences on the student’s record.
Families of absent students will be called daily to verify the reason as to the absence.
The complete NYCDOE School Health Policy outlines the procedures, responses, protocols for all health materials related to COVID-19 mitigation efforts in schools. In the event a student shows signs or symptoms of COVID-19they will be sent to a holding area in the Nurse’s Office until they are picked up.
It's important to understand the impact of student attendance and lateness. Even small instances of lateness or absence can add up to a significant loss of learning time.
