The latest supervision will be provided is 4 PM in the commons, and the earliest you can drop off your student(s) is 7:30 AM in the commons - Attendance (Hotline: 614-410-4343)
To report an absence, late arrival, or early dismissal before 9 AM on a school day, call the attendance hotline at 614-410-4343. Messages can also be left the night before and will be adjusted in attendance the next day. After 9 AM on a school day, please call the main office at 614-431-8210.- Attendance Flowchart: Please note that all excused absences will be marked as “unexcused” until proper documentation is turned in.
- Extended Absence: If you are aware of a future absence that will be 4+ days, please fill out our Extended Absence Pre-verification Form and turn it in to the office at least a week prior to leaving if possible.
- Attendance Policies: This is a brief summary of our policies regarding academic integrity and regulated attendance rules. More details can be found in our student handbook (found in Quick Links, below).
- Items Dropped Off in Main Office: Our office staff is always glad to help get forgotten items to students when time allows, though the office can be quite busy at times. To help things run smoothly, we encourage students to double-check in the morning to be sure they have everything they’ll need for the day. When dropping off items, we kindly ask that these be limited to essentials, as we can’t always guarantee quick delivery. Please also keep in mind that sending messages about items can interrupt class time. If you do need to drop something off, please label it with your student’s name and place it on the black shelf—our office team will then make sure your student picks it up.
- Student Drivers: All students driving themselves to campus must read our Student Parking Map and Rules as well as purchase a parking pass. After filling out the form and paying online, see Mrs. Lawhead in the office about getting your pass! (Please note that the student parking spaces have changed slightly from last year. Student spaces are now lined with yellow. Faculty/staff/visitor parking is white.)
- Warrior Fridays
Every Friday, students involved in sports or extracurriculars at WC can wear their jersey/t-shirts to school instead of their uniform shirt! Please note that you still must wear your uniform bottoms on Fridays. - Chapel
Parents are welcome to attend any of our chapels during the school year! They are every Wednesday in the Grace Polaris Church Worship Center (9-12 starts at 11:11 AM, 7-8 starts at 11:54 AM). Please remember that you must sign in at the Upper School office before going to chapel. - Device Usage
Personal technology such as cellphones or tablets may not be used during the entire school day. School-issued Chromebooks are the only devices permitted. If parents need to get a message to their student, please call the main office and either Mrs. Lawhead or Ms. Di Asio will notify the student. If students need to use their cellphones, they must go to the main office or the nurse’s office to get permission. - Work Permits
Students needing a work permit should complete the pre-application form and have their employer complete the bottom portion. Then, bring the form to the office to be filed online. Please allow a minimum of 24 hours for the office to complete the work permit filing process. - Warrior Moms Prayer Group
Join us for a time of prayer every Friday morning at 8:20 AM outside of the Upper School, near the main office entrance. Questions? Contact Justine Styer.
