A reminder of a few county and school policies:
- All educational leave forms must be submitted 30 days in advance or they will not be approved.
- Parents must send in written notes for afternoon pick-up changes. We do not accept phone calls, text messages, Schoology/SeeSaw messages, etc. except in emergency situations. This is for your child's protection.
- Preston County School's policy does not allow for bus passes. If you need a permanent or semi-permanent alternative bus stop, you must fill out a request for alternative bus stop and have it approved by the transportation department.
- No students are to be signed out through the main office after 2:00pm. This is to ensure the safety of your child as we prepare for dismissal. If you need to pick up your child after 2:00pm, you must use the parent pick-up line.
