Dear Parents,
This week we are covering a few more things that you need to know before school begins. As always, if you need additional details or have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to us! Please see below for information regarding checking students in and out during the school day, and an update on our uniform policy.
Checking Your Students In/Out During the School Day
We understand that from time to time your student may need to arrive late or leave early. When necessary, please make sure you are following the proper protocols.
Checking In
If your child arrives late, they will need to sign-in in the front office. If he or she is coming from an appointment, please have them bring in a note. If they come in late without documentation, it will be counted as an unexcused tardy.
Checking Out
If your child needs to leave school early for any reason, and is driving or being picked up by anyone other than a parent or legal guardian, we must have a handwritten note from the parent or legal guardian with the following information:
- Student's name
- Date
- Time of departure
- Who will pick them up (or if they will be driving themselves)
You can send a handwritten note to school with your child, or text/ email a photo of the note to attendance@cnhs.org. It is a diocesan policy that we have a handwritten note with a signature, and your student will not be allowed to leave campus if we do not have it. (A phone call, email or any other digital communication will not suffice.)
If your child is driving themselves, they will sign out in the office and then be allowed to leave. If your child is being picked up, the person picking them up is required to come into the office and sign them out. If a parent or legal guardian is picking them up - that person will just sign them out in the office rather than sending in a note. When you arrive, simply ring the doorbell and a front office staff member will let you in.
Uniforms (updated)
Last week we shared some information regarding uniforms. We are in the process of phasing out the block CN logo, which has historically been on our uniform polos. Because we have one more school year with our current uniform vendor, we will allow these polos to be worn for the 2022-2023 school year only. If you have been given one of these polos, or choose to purchase one at the used uniform sale next month, please note that they will only be allowed for the upcoming school year, and not beyond. Starting in August of 2023, only polos bearing the CN shield logo (seen at the top of this email) will be allowed.
There will be no email next week or the week after. You can expect to receive the next New Family communication on Wednesday, July 13. As always, if you have questions, do not hesitate to contact us! Remember that we will archive all of these emails at the bottom of the New Family page, should you need to reference them at a later date.
