Dear Students, Parents/Caregivers, and Staff – Please review the following guidelines for students who are on release time:
If you are a student who has release time of any form, Intern Mentor, Site-Based Work, or Field Experience the following guidelines must be followed:
- Release time refers to any student who has permission to leave the building before the end of the day (2:10 am) or comes to school after the start of the day (7:25 am).
- There are multiple forms of release time: work release, medical release (reduced schedule), HCC release.
- Intern/Mentor, Site-based work release, and Field experience are all scheduled courses which also have students leaving the school building before the end of the day.
- Students are released from school after their last class. This means they are to stay in class until the class ends regardless of the day.
- If your release time is after 3rd period, on a regular bell schedule day you leave after 3rd period ends at 10:10 am and after school, period ends on GLAD day at 10:25 am. You do not get to leave your class early because we have an alternate bell schedule.
- If you leave class early, this will be considered a class cut and the appropriate consequences will be assigned.
- Students who are on release time must leave the school premises after their last class. Parents assume all responsibility for students during release time.
- If there is ever a need to stay after to work with a teacher, you must get permission from your administrator in order to stay.
- If you have sports after school and release time in the morning, you must leave school during the time you are not supposed to be in the building, and then return when your sport/club begins.
- You must sign out every day at the attendance window with Ms. Derwart.
If you have any questions or concerns, please see your assigned administrator.
