Attendance, Arrival & Dismissal

Attendance

Reporting an Absence, Late Arrival or Early Departure for Students:

Please email attendance@ohmcs.org to report an absence, late arrival or early departure for students.

If children are arriving after 8:45 or leaving before 3:45, please enter at Door 1 and sign them in or out in the school office.

Arrival Procedure

The student drop-off window is from 8:35-8:45am, with the school day starting promptly at 8:45am. During this time an administrator will be at doors #1 and #3 to welcome students into the building.

With cars and buses sharing the same drop-off and pick-up line, we ask that everyone follow the procedures outlined below.

Morning Arrival:

  • Pre-K through 8th grade students who are able to get out of the car independently may be dropped off using the car line. Children should exit the car at the curbside along the courtyard.

  • Toddlers and any Pre-K children who cannot exit the car without assistance, please park and bring your children to Door #1.

  • Toddler, Casa and Junior High students enter the building through Door #1. 

  • Elementary students enter through Door #3. 

  • Both doors will be staffed from 8:35am-8:45am.

  • If you are parked in the car line when buses arrive, please promptly exit the line and park to allow buses to access the loading/unloading zone. Buses have priority in order to remain on schedule.

Late Arrivals: 

If arriving after 8:45am and no Oak Hill staff member is present at the door,  please park and accompany your child inside the building through door #1 to sign them in at the main office.  

For safety, children should not enter the building alone when an Oak Hill staff is not present outside of the main door. 

Toddler and Children's House students that arrive late must be walked to their classroom by a parent.

Dismissal Procedure

  • The afternoon pick-up window is 3:45pm-4:00pm. You may utilize the car line (by placing your name card in the front window of your vehicle) or park and walk into the courtyard. Children will be called upon your arrival.

  • Vehicles should not line up prior to 3:45pm to allow others to move about the parking lot as needed. If you arrive earlier than 3:45pm, please park your vehicle. 

  • If you are in line when buses arrive, please promptly exit the line and park to allow buses to access the loading/unloading zone. Buses have priority in order to remain on schedule.

  • Any students not picked up by 4:00pm will be brought to after-care and families will be billed for drop-in care.
