PARENTS OF STUDENT DRIVERS
December 2008
Dear Parents,
I am writing to all parents of our student drivers. We are nearing
the winter season, with potential snow days, possibly early dismissals, and
some days when we have school, but the roads may not be as safe as normal
due
to residue from cleanup crews. We want to communicate with you about our
general policies for student drivers in these situations.
First let me say that student safety is always our ultimate
concern.
We will not ever knowingly put students at risk. However, it is not always
possible to have complete information in every case where a decision has to
be made. With that in mind here are some of our guidelines:
1. If you don’t want your son or daughter driving due
to
conditions, just call the high school office and we will give an excused
absence for that day.
2. You may also call and request your son or daughter be
allowed
to leave early and we will also allow for that as excused.
3. On any day we have to close school early, the student
drivers
are dismissed immediately, as soon as the decision is made, even if buses
won’t arrive until later.
4. No special arrangements will be allowed for student drivers
to take other students home.
As always, our school closings are posted on our school web site
and
on primary commercial television stations (channels 3, 6, and 10). If you
have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me at my
office.
I will be happy to speak with you.
God bless you with a wonderful Christmas season!
In Christ’s Love,
Wayne P. Baker
Headmaster
