Student  Pick Up Authorization

 Parents Emergency or Discipline

This will grant my (our) permission for my (our) son or daughter,

                                                                  , in the              grade at

Faith Elementary School, during this 2007-2008 school term, to be picked-up

upon call by the individuals listed below, in the order of their listing. I do understand that

neither I, (we) nor anyone else will be called by the school unless it is considered in the best interest of my child and the other students and staff of the school, for my (our) child to be removed from the school setting for at least the remainder of the school day. I (we) understand further that that the pick-up request will be serious (of a medical, hygiene, discipline, or other exceptional or emergency cause) and I (we) intend to honor such request just as quickly as humanly possible in person or through my (our) authorized designee listed below. (Please list self or other parent or guardian as primary and all others afterwards). Feel free to list relationship to child for each designee given to the left or right of the listing. It goes without saying that if a child is picked-up from school and given a treat, or is not disciplined and/or counseled by parent (s), the pick-up call will be received often and will also be ineffective. In other words, having the school call you or somebody else to interrupt their school day should not be an experience your child looks forward to having, and certainly not one he or she should desire to have repeated.

Please advise your designee to be prepared to show official identification documents (s), i.e. a current drivers license, upon pick-up and preferably be prepared, to be recognized by your child, unless they are properly known by us. Please know that the school is empathetic to your need to stay on your job. Nevertheless, in these times of trickery, kidnapping, parents struggle with a child in the middle, and sometimes worse, you can understand that we need to do an effective job of being sure that your child does not leave the campus with anyone except someone you have designated and approved. We value your trust in us. We want to always be worthy of that trust. Should it be necessary for anyone not on the list above to pick-up your child from school, kindly identify this individual to us and let him or her know that we may require standard identification. When possible, we may require that the individual calls you in our presence to verify that he or she is at that time in the process of collecting your child as you have directed. We realize this may be cumbersome but we are sure that you will agree with us that your child is well worth it. Thank you for your cooperation.

We pray that we can work effectively with you as a good team.
