Updated Emergency Contacts
Dear Families,
We have asked all families to please update their emergency contacts and provide us with 3 names of individuals who you authorize to pick up your child in case of an illness or emergency wherein we cannot reach you. It is important that these individuals are able to come and pick up your child within 30 minutes. It is difficult for children who are sick to be in school for an extended period of time.
In these situations, we always call the parent/guardian first but when we are only able to leave a message or cannot reach anyone for an extended period of time given their child's illness, we need send the appropriate authority to the home to find the parent/guardian. Your full cooperation in making sure that we can reach you or one of your emergency contacts immediately to come and get your child will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your assistance in this important matter.
Sincerely,
Rosario Alvarez
