Important Information
Photo Identification at Pickup
Recently, we have received some questions regarding photo identification when picking up students. Here are some important reminders (which can be found in the JSC Handbook in the resource section at the bottom of this newsletter):
Dismissal Process (Walker Dismissal and Early Dismissal for Appointments):
Any person who picks up a student needs to be on the student's pickup (emergency contact) sheet. We ask that the person picking up brings a photo ID. (This can be the actual photo ID or a photograph of the ID on a phone.)
Please contact the John S. Clarke Elementary Center main office with any questions, at (570)621-2945.
