My child has a special event—or practice during the week he/she is scheduled to attend ODE. Can I pick him/her up and return him/her?
Generally NO. One of the experiences of Outdoor School is to build independence and get away from the daily schedules. We have learned by past experiences that it is very difficult to have students coming and going. If you feel you must take your child out early, you may pick them up, but they may not return to outdoor school. If you feel there are unusual circumstances, please talk to your principal first and you may then be directed to the Director of Elementary Education. A student who is sent home ill may return after being free of fever and illness for 24 hours. Please let all of your child’s coaches, special teachers, religious school teachers, etc. know that your child will be at Outdoor School and not attending any after-school hours events.
