College Ave., Salisbury, MD 21804 Our front office staff receive numerous requests each day that involve calling students from their classrooms. To minimize these interruptions to the school day and classroom instruction, we are asking that parents limit the number of times they call school to leave messages or drop off items. Dropping Off Items for A Student When dropping something off for a student, please put the student’s name on it and instruct the student to come to the main office for the item. Students may pick up items between classes or during their lunch. We will not call them from class. Messages For Students Emergency messages from parents will be given to the student at 2:40pm during the afternoon announcement prior to dismissal. Please don’t call school and ask our staff to remind students of an appointment or a ride home. Picking A Student Up Please do not call the office asking us to have a child ready. In order to pick up a student, you must present your driver’s license and any adult that signs a student out MUST be on the student’s contact list and present ID. Visitors ALL visitors MUST report to the Front Office and register using a valid ID before going further into the building. Failure to do so could result in prosecution under Maryland School Trespass Law. Visitors must have a visitor’s pass. Please keep in mind that passes will not be issued automatically.
