Students are permitted on campus between 8:45 a.m. and 3:45 p.m.
Only students registered with the PrimeTime or SAY Birney extended day programs, or in a class, may be on campus at any other time.
Students must be supervised at all times. If a certificated staff member wishes to admit a student at other times, written arrangements must be made with the parent using a field trip request form. A copy of the signed permission slip must be located in the office. It is the supervising staff member's responsibility to let the student on and off campus. Under no circumstances are the students to be left alone until someone arrives to pick them up.
