Parent-Student Rules and Requirements for Early Relase

For the safety of students at Sultana High School, the staff is enforcing procedures for parents to check students out early and contacting students during school hours.

Students in the past have had the tendency to text their parents to come pick them up from school during class, or in some cases, leave campus with someone with no authority at all. School rules are going to get stricter.

          “All of our rules regarding off ground passes and attendance and everything like that are actually constructed with the children’s safety at heart.” said Vice Principal Isaac Newman-Gomez, “That’s our very first priority.”

Parents need to work with the school as well by understanding the safety precautions and procedures that are now taking place. A parent needs to notify the attendance office at least an hour’s notice to avoid frustration of the student not being on time. There will also be several questions asked and a process to go through to be sure the student is safe with the person whom is being released to.

“If a parent is aware of an appointment, call that morning if they can, so they can get the pass out in enough time to the student, so they can be out front so the parent doesn’t need to wait.” said Michelle Horne, attendance specialist at Sultana High.

These rules are constrained for the student’s safety. Staff doesn’t want to release the
student to someone with no authority what so ever. All the security and rules are to create an intact and secure environment for students.
