Change of Dismissal
If your child will be going home a different way other than their designated plan, a note MUST be written to confirm the change. This is to ensure your child's safety. If you forget a note, you can write an email. You will know that I received the email because I will write back. Please note that your child cannot ride on another student's bus or get off at a different bus stop rather than their own.
Use Caution With Email: Sometimes our internet server is down and we cannot receive emails. If you didn't receive an email back from me it means I never saw your email.
Special Note to JCC students: If your child normally goes to JCC and will NOT be riding the JCC bus you must notify their teacher (me) and the Aiken Office. The JCC should also be notified.

Early Pickup
At Aiken we do not send kids to the office at certain times as indicated on the "Note To School" notepad you receive with the Aiken Directory.
Our procedure is to send student's down when the office calls the classroom. The purpose of the note is to give teachers a heads up in order to be best prepared for an early pick up (Example: Asking student to get their homework earlier in the day so they have it when they go home)
