Registration and Enrollment
Students moving into the Laurel County School System will need to have the following items when they come to register:
-
certified birth certificate
-
social security card
-
immunization record
-
physical / eye exam
-
proof of residence
Students will register for North Laurel High School in the Guidance Office. Enrollment forms can be obtained when enrolling for school. Students must attend the school within the district that they are living.
ATTENDANCE POLICY – See Student Code of Acceptable Conduct
School attendance is critical to student learning. Kentucky laws regulate unexcused absences which may lead to court charges of either truancy or neglect, depending upon the age of the child. However, even when absences are excused, the students miss valuable instruction. Therefore, the Board of Education has established policies that regulate the number of absences that can be excused until the DPPs conduct an investigation. Attendance policies are available in the Student Code of Conduct.
HOME AND HOSPITAL INSTRUCTION
One of the most misunderstood programs is Home and Hospital Instruction (HHI) which is often referred to as Homebound. HHI is often mistaken as a long term program, however,
it is designed to be a short term educational program for students who have had surgery, been in an accident, or other health impairment that will not allow them to attend school for awhile. HHI teachers visit the student’s home twice every 5 days. The DPPs help administer this program. The HHI office can be reached at 862-4608
ILLNESS AT SCHOOL
If you become ill during the school day, you should go to the Nurse’s office. Do not attempt to stay in the restroom unless you have permission from a principal or other designated staff.
PROCEDURE FOR EARLY DISMISSALS
The school is responsible for you from the time you board the bus in the morning until you depart from the school bus in the afternoon. Likewise, the school is responsible for you upon arrival at school regardless of what means you use to get there (walking, riding with a friend, driving, etc.). Upon arrival at school, by bus or other means, you may not leave the school property unless you have permission from one of the principals. The following regulations are required if you need to leave school before the end of the day:
A. Your parent/guardian must come to school and sign for early dismissal. Students are to remain in class until parents arrive.
B. You must leave the grounds immediately upon being signed out.
C. NO DISMISSAL BY PHONE
REMINDER: Limit of eight (8) days excused by parent note.
TELEPHONE CALLS
Students WILL NOT be given a pass during class for permission to use the phone. The phones in the school office WILL NOT be used by the students except in cases of emergency. All other student phone calls will be made from the Youth Service Center.
MEDICATION POLICY
All medications brought to school must be registered in the Nurse’s office immediately upon arrival to school. Proper forms and signatures must be completed.
Nurse Treatment Consent Form
All students received the 2015-16 consent form on the first day of school. If a new form is required, students may retrieve a new form from the nurse’s office located in the front office.
