If you know ahead of time that you will be picking up your child early, send a note in with your child letting us know what time you are coming. If you need to pick your child up due to an unforeseen circumstance, call the school so we can notify your child's teacher. The children will be called to the office upon your arrival. You must sign your child out in the main office. If your child is going to a friend's house after school, you need to send your child to school with a note informing the teacher of the change in dismissal. Children are not allowed to ride different buses for play dates.Back to Top

Homework pick-up is arranged through the main office. When you are calling in your child's absence, please let us know at this time that you are requesting homework. Homework can be picked up at the office after dismissal time or can be sent home with another student. Homework requests made after lunchtime are not guaranteed.Back to Top
Can I have lunch with my child?
We are sorry, but this is no longer possible. Due to an increase in our enrollment and for our students' safety and privacy, we can no longer have family members join students for lunch. We are unable to accommodate the number of parents, guardians, grandparents and younger siblings who have been coming to school to have lunch with students. We need the tables to accommodate our students and to provide a safer environment. Thank you for your understanding.Back to Top

The person to contact is Cindy Hanson. You can send a note to school with your child requesting that she call you. Please include your phone number where you can be reached, the name of your child, and your child's ID number if you know it. For more information go to http://milfordfs.org/Back to Top
