EARLY DISMISSAL DAYS


Early dismissal days for faculty meetings and before holidays are indicated on the school calendar. Students in grades K - 8 will be dismissed on these days at 1:20 PM and Full day Pre-K will be dismissed at 1:10 PM.


ELECTRONIC DEVICES


The students are permitted to have music and CD/MP3/iPod players in school for recess, Before and After Care, and bus rides. Any student found to have music considered offensive will have it confiscated.  The student will then lose the privilege of using audio devices in school.


Any electronic device with the capability of sending wireless messages to other devices (i.e. Nintendo DS)  are prohibited in school.  Handheld gaming devices, toys or other items brought to school by the students which cause a distraction may be confiscated by school staff. Such items may be claimed at the end of the school year.


Toys or other items used on the school bus by the students which cause a distraction may be barred by the busdriver.



EMERGENCY CLOSINGS


During weather emergencies Saint Aloysius School follows the Jackson Township School District in decisions to close school or delay opening.

If Jackson Public Schools are closed due to inclement weather, Saint Aloysius School will be closed.


Parents will be notified of closures or delayed openings via Global Connect, which sends voicemail to the phone numbers provided by the parents. 


There is NO BeforeCare or AM Pre-K when there is a delayed opening.  In the event that school is in session and an emergency closing is necessary the parents will be notified via Global Connect. 

Parents must always be prepared for such emergencies with a procedure for their child to follow, who to contact, and where to go if they are dismissed early.


Please notify the school office of any changes to your phone number or emergency contacts.
