Procedures

 

If a child or student becomes lost, or is suspected of missing between home and school:

 

1. Check with parents or guardian if student does not arrive at school and has not been reported absent by parent.

2. Call attendance secretary/recorder and give student or child's possible route to school.

Attendance Recorder: ___________________

Attendance Recorder Telephone:______________

3. Inform parents or guardian to notify local law enforcement agency if student has not been located within a reasonable period of time.

 

NOTE: This notification to the law enforcement agency must be made by the parent or legal guardian.

 

 

If a child or student leaves school or is reported missing between school and home:

 

1. Call parent or guardian.

2. Call attendance secretary/recorder for any information on authorized release of student.

3. Call law enforcement agency if student is not located within a reasonable period of time.

NOTE: it is important to maintain contact with one person at the law enforcement agency.

These suggestions cover situations when children are left at school, such as being locked up in a building, not picked up by the parent or guardian, or not picked up after school sponsored event or activity, as follows:

 

1. Parents should be informed in a student handbook, school newsletter, or other means, that there is no supervision at most schools after school is dismissed.

 

2. Methods for handling these situations will depend, to a large degree, upon the age and maturity of the child. If parents or guardian cannot be reached and the child is upset, options would include:

 

a. Call the parent/guardian if the child knows where to reach him/her

b. Call the principal at school or at home

Home Telephone:________________

c. Call the local law enforcement agency

d. Call local social services, if this type of service is available

3. Do not leave the child alone. Seek assistance. Usually, it is not necessary to remove the child from the school waiting area.

 

In all of the above situations:

 

1. Call Superintendent

Superintendent's Home Telephone:______________

2. Refer calls of inquiry from the media to the proper civil authority (law enforcement) or to the Office of the Superintendent. Keep the Superintendent informed of developments.
