New Dismissal Procedures for 2018
Safety for your child is a focus for us. One place that we can be more efficient and safer is to improve our dismissal process. With more and more daily bus notes, pick up notes and students going in so many different directions each day, it has become increasingly important for Hoosier Road Elementary School to find a more efficient system that ensures our students arrive at their proper destination safely each day. Therefore, we have adopted an electronic dismissal management system called School Dismissal Manager. This system is being implemented in other elementary schools in HSE. This web-based program allows you, the parent, to schedule and update your child(ren)’s dismissal plans at the click of a button on your mobile device or laptop computer. This new system will allow parents to communicate your child's change in dismissal plans safely, easily and quickly! It is intended to replace notes and phone calls to the office since all the information you enter can be viewed by school staff. Please note: This is for end-of-day transportation changes only, including car-riders, YMCA, bus riders and after school activities. It is not to be used for requesting an early dismissal for your child(ren) for doctor's appointments, etc. or for reporting absent or tardy students.
We will begin using this system on Monday, January 8, 2018. On Friday, January 5, 2018, you will receive an email from School Dismissal Manager with instructions, your username and a temporary password to set up your student's dismissal plans.
