Early dismissal days are scheduled to allow for staff development sessions and for report card preparation. School is dismissed at 1:20 pm on these days. Children will be fed lunch and regular bus routes will operate. See the MCPS school calendar for scheduled early dismissal days.
Any prescribed medication that needs to be administered at school must be in the original bottle and must be accompanied by MCPS form 525-13 (Authorization to Administer Prescribed Medication). All medications, written instructions and signed waivers must be hand-delivered to the school by a parent or guardian.
Snow Days. Schools may be closed because of inclement weather or other emergency reasons. Please listen to radio and television stations for information, usually available no later than 6:00 am. Major radio stations, like WTOP (1500 AM) and WMAL (630 AM) have agreed to report school closing details.
The Board of Education encourages the response to citizen inquiries and complaints at the local school or at the lowest possible administrative level and by the informal process of cooperative agreement among the affected parties. If you have a question or concern, please contact the main office for assistance.
If your child is absent from school, please call the 24-hour school telephone recorder and leave a message. Unless the school is notified of a child's absence, parents will be telephoned if their child is not in school. Upon the child's return to school, a written excuse that explains the reason for the absence is required.
Illness/Injury. Should a child become ill or injured while at school, every attempt will be made to contact the parent/guardian. When parents cannot be reached, the person designated in the child's school records as the emergency contact will be called.
Students are encouraged to attend daily. Interruptions for family excursions or business are discouraged. As outlined in Maryland law, only the following are considered excused absences: (1) death in the immediate family; (2) illness of the child; (3) quarantine by the local Board of Health; (4) court summons; (5) violent storms; (6) activity approved by the school, MCPS, or the State Department of Education; (7) observance of a religious holiday; and (8) state of emergency.
