6)  Q What if I need to check my child out early.
A
Please come inside the building to the front desk. We will call your child up to the office. If it is after 2:00 p.m., we will not be able to do this. Also, bring in your identification if you want to check out your child early.
7)  Q What if my child needs to go home a different way in the afternoon.
A
Always send a note to your child's teacher. No changes of transportation will be taken over the telephone for security reasons. We will give your child a change of transporation notice from the office after we receive a note from you.

If your child is going home with another student, you must write a note and the "receiving" parent must write a note. We need to make sure both parents know about this situation.
8)  Q What is the attendance policy?
A
For detailed information, please read your child's Bartow County Schools' Student Handbook. In a nutshell, the law states that more than five unexcused absences per semester constitutes truancy. Also, please keep in mind if you want your child to be awarded a perfect attendance certificate at award's day, excessive tardies or early checkouts do not constitute perfect attendance.
9)  Q Do you serve breakfast?
A
Yes. Breakfast will be served beginning at 7:00a.m. If your child is a car rider, please note that we will conclude serving breakfast at 7:45 a.m.

There is detailed information about these prices in the Bartow County Schools' Student Handbook. Breakfast is $1.00 daily and lunch is $1.85 daily.
11)  Q Do you have an After School Program?
A
Yes we do! Please call the school for additional information and enrollment process.
