Common Questions from Our Parents…

  • School Policies and Procedures are established at every school to improve local systems and processes and to ensure the safety of our students, employees and visitors.

    In order to assist you in learning about the policies and procedures at Eastside High, we are including a list of frequently asked questions from parents to our front office staff. It is our goal for our school website and the Parent/Student Handbook to be a resource for answering your questions. We will continue to add questions/answers as necessary.

    Q: I need to speak to one of my child’s teacher. Can I come in early one morning and go to the classroom?
    A: Mornings are busy times for our teachers as they are preparing for the school day, so please email the guidance department to arrange a convenient time to meet with her/him. 
    Q: How do I get my child’s teacher email address?
    A: All school employees have the same ending to their email address: @gm.sbac.edu. Email addresses are listed on our Faculty and Staff page.
    Q: My child has a 3:00 dentist appointment. Can I check her out at 2:30?
    A: The latest time to check out a student is 2:00.
    Q: My child usually rides the bus home but I need him to be a car rider today. Can I call or send an email to make that change?
    A: We cannot accept transportation changes over the phone or by email. Send in a written note with your student the morning you want her/him to be a car rider.
    Q: I want to visit my child’s classroom. Do I need to check in the front office first?
    A: Unexpected visitors can be disruptive to the learning environment, therefore we ask that you refrain from visiting the classroom unless you have made arrangements with the teacher. If arrangements are made, you will check in the front office for a visitor pass before proceeding to the classroom.
