What is the procedure if my child has a change in pick up from school?

If you know ahead of time that you’ll be picking up your child early, 
send a note in with your child letting us know what time you’re 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.

How can I arrange for homework when my child is absent?

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.

Can I have lunch with my child?

You are welcome to come for lunch with your child. Please sign in at the
office and meet your child in the cafeteria. Bringing Fast Food lunches,such
as McDonalds, is discouraged. We ask that you do not ask other children to
join you when you come for lunch with your child. We have limited space and it
causes hurt feelings for those not invited to join you.

Who do I speak with about my child's lunch account?

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/
