DROP-OFF OR PICK-UP OF STUDENTS

Parents dropping off or picking up students must enter Ransom Middle School through the East Gate and exit through our center driveway (TRAFFIC IS ONE WAY).  The Drop-off and Pick-up area is in the front of the school across from the Teachers' Parking Lot.

The west gate is reserved for school buses only.

STUDENT ATTENDANCE

ALL absences must be called in each day that a student is absent (937-2220 ext. 225).

When the student returns to school, he/she MUST bring a note from either a parent or doctor. It is the responsibility of the student to make up all work that has been missed.

Any student who is tardy for school MUST be checked in by a parent. Absences related to illness or injury of the student that exceed five (5) consecutive days or a total of ten (10) days requires a doctor's note.

SPECIAL CHECK OUT INSTRUCTIONS

If your child requires special check-out instructions, please notify the main office in writing on "Orientation Day" or by the first week of school.

Any student who needs to check out during the school day must be checked out by a parent or designated adult (the individual's name and telephone number must be on file at RMS).

There will be no check-outs taken over the phone. There will also be no check-outs after 3:30 PM. We are required to see a photo I.D. before a student can be checked out.

There is a telephone in the Guidance Office that students may use for EMERGENCIES only.

If your student needs to make arrangements to go home with another student, these arrangements must be made before arriving at school.

NO telephone messages will be recorded and forwarded to the students after 3:30.

Teachers can be reached by email. The email addresses are located on the school web site (Faculty Page).

Students may have cell phones; however, ALL CELL PHONES MUST BE TURNED OFF AND OUT OF SIGHT.

Violations of this policy could result in administration action being taken, to include confiscation of the student's cell phone.

Please contact the school for further information.                                  

Each student is given his or her own copy of the Escambia County School District Student Rights and Responsibilities Handbook.
