Nurse notes
Below are the PISD Guidelines for keeping your kiddos home if they are sick. Please help us in preventing the spread of illness by complying with PISD guidelines. It is important to remember that your child must be symptom free, without the aid of medication, for 24 hours before returning to school.
“ The guidelines below have been developed for the exclusion of students who have communicable or contagious diseases. These regulations are in compliance with the requirements of the local health authority, Plano ISD Administrative Guidelines, and the Board of Trustees’ appointed medical officer.
1. A student with any of the following symptoms will be excluded from school until such time as the student is free of symptoms, has been satisfactorily treated, or submits a signed physician’s statement that he/she is not contagious.
· Temperature of 100 degrees or more. Student must be fever free for 24 hours, without medication, before re-entry.
· Nausea, vomiting or diarrhea. Student must be symptom free for 24 hours without medication before re-entry.
· Pain and/or swelling at angle of jaw.
· Undetermined rash over any part of the body.

As we approach cooler weather, please send your student(s) with labeled weather appropriate clothing and outerwear. Per the PISD guidelines, outside activity is restricted if “actual temperature or wind chill is below 32 degrees.” Which means, if it is 32* or feels like 32* or above, and not raining, students will still be going outside for recess. Please make sure you label all jackets/coats/outerwear with your student’s name(s) in case they get lost. Lost and found does get donated by the office manager at the end of each month.
The Tardy Bell Rings at 7:45 a.m.
Students can be dropped of at 7 am in the morning.
The first bell rings to dismiss students to class at 7:30
Students should be in their seats and ready to learn when the 7:45 bell rings.
Everyday your child is in school is another day they are learning. Missing only 10% of the school year (18 days) can make it hard for your child to keep up with the lessons. If you are struggling to get your child to school on time or to get them to school at all, we are here to help you. Please reach out to us for help.
Reading is Important!!
Operation Child Safe!!
OPERATION CHILD SAFE
Dial (469) 752-0600 – Press 1 for English, then Press 3 to report an absence
Operation Child Safe is a program established to account for every child who is not present when attendance is taken (7:45am). It is important that you call our Child Safe line every day that your child is absent or tardy, even if you have notified the teacher. Please leave a brief message including your child’s full name, student ID number, grade, teacher, and specific reason for absence or tardy. Child Safe is strictly to confirm your child’s safe arrival at school.
Please remember that calling to report an absence for the purpose of Child Safe does not provide an excuse for the absence. When your child returns to school, a written note (signed and dated) from the parent or doctor stating the reason for the absence or tardy is required within 3 days in the front office.
Your child’s safety is very important to us! We appreciate your cooperation with Operation Child Safe and with our attendance procedures.
Respectfully,
Carlisle Elementary Office Staff
We'd love for you to come volunteer this year!

This is true for volunteering, lunch visits, attending Good Morning Carlisle on Fridays ~ anytime you are going past the front office. Thank you for your cooperation.
Drive Safely. Children are EVERYWHERE!
MORNING DROP-OFF:
The drop-off line forms along Old Orchard heading west, permitting a right turn only into the driveway. Driving east on Old Orchard, please do not turn left into the driveway.
The City of Plano has posted a “No Left Turn” sign at this location. You may NOT turn left into the driveway between 7:30–8:30 a.m. or 2:30–3:30 pm on school days.
Please pull forward, maintaining a single line to the main entrance before letting your child exit the car. Please stay in your car and come through the driveway. We have a system in place for carpool designed to keep our children safe. All children will enter the school by the main entrance. Parents may start dropping off children at 7:00 a.m. Students go to the gym until 7:30 a.m. when they are dismissed to go to their classrooms.
All children should exit on the right side of the automobile. Children should not exit cars in the middle of the driveway or in the streets. Safety Patrol members are stationed along the front sidewalk to assist your children until the 7:45 bell rings. Adults should not get out of the car for any reason while in the driveway. Please have your children ready to get out of the car as soon as the car stops in the carpool lane.
We recognize there are several restrictions that make carpool a bit tricky in the morning. Every single one of these are in place to keep our children safe and to start each morning with little stress and lots of smiles! Thanks you for your cooperation with each of these carpool safety rules and thank you for modeling respect for our rules and for one another when bringing your children to school each day!
Don't forget to Update Your Child's Information in Parent Portal

- Click on each child's name and follow the directions for completing all of the registration information for the 2019-20 school year below.
You will need to complete the following information for each child you have enrolled in school:
