As we begin a season where there is the potential inclement weather and hazardous road conditions, please remember that we will use Alert Now to notify you of school closings. We monitor weather and road conditions very closely and do our best to keep our families safe without unnecessary closing which might result in make-up days later. We do not follow the county schedule because our students to not use bus transportation. However, if you ever feel that you do not feel safe driving, we fully approve of the right of parents to make their own call about attendance on days like today, especially if you live far away. In the event that we need to dismiss before tonight’s Student Council Movie Game Night, we will notify you of a make up date, TBD. We will hold the money paid and send out a new permission form, asking parents to approve of the new date. Money will be returned to students who choose not to attend on the make up date.
STUDENT HEALTH Records: State regulations require that all Capital Day students have a current physical, a copy of a legal birth certificate and an up-to-date immunization record on file at the school. You have two weeks to provide an updated immunization record once it expires. If we do not receive the updated record after the two weeks, you will receive a letter stating that your child is not allowed to return to school until an updated immunization record is provided.
Sick Policy: Children who have had a fever, diarrhea, or vomiting should be symptom free for 24 hours without medication (ibuprofen, acetaminophen, imodium, etc.) before returning to school. If a child develops these symptoms after arriving at school, the child will be isolated and the parent notified to pick up the child. When children return to school, they will need to be able to follow the daily routine with their class. All students should be well enough to participate in recess and enrichment classes before returning to school.
ARRIVAL TIME All students should be at school no later than 7:50 a.m. in order to have time to prepare for the day, so please make every effort to have your child here on time. Also keep in mind that the earliest students can arrive is 7:15 a.m.; there is no supervision available before then.
