| Students with specific health care needs should submit those needs, in writing and with proper documentation by a physician, to the school office. |
|
|
| INJURY AND ILLNESS |
All injuries must be reported to a teacher or the office. If the injuries are minor, the student will be treated and may return to class. If medical attention is required, the office will follow the school’s emergency procedures.
A student who becomes ill during the school day should request permission from the teacher to go to the office. The office will determine whether or not the student should remain in school or go home. No student will be released from school without proper parental permission.

SECTION I – GENERAL INFORMATION
|
| ENROLLING IN THE SCHOOL |
Students are expected to enroll in the school district in which they live unless enrolling under the district’s open enrollment policy.
Students that are new to the Ottawa-Glandorf School District are required to enroll with their parents or legal guardian. When enrolling, the parents will need to bring:
•a birth certificate or similar document,
•court papers allocating parental rights and responsibilities, or custody (if appropriate),
•proof of residency,
•proof of immunizations,
•social security numbers.
Under certain circumstances, temporary enrollment may be permitted. If that is done, the parents will be told what records are needed to make the enrollment official.
Students enrolling from another accredited school must have an official transcript from the sending school in order to receive credit from that school. The office will assist in obtaining the transcript, if not present at the time of enrollment.
A student who has been suspended or expelled by another public school in Ohio may be temporarily denied admission to the district’s schools during the period of suspension or expulsion, even if that student would otherwise be entitled to attend school in the district. Likewise, a student who has been expelled or otherwise removed for disciplinary purposes from a public school in another state, and the period of expulsion or removal has not expired, may be temporarily denied admission to the district’s schools during the period of expulsion or removal or until the expiration of the period of expulsion or removal which the student would have received in the district had the student committed the offense while enrolled in the district. Prior to denying admission, however, the Superintendent shall offer the student an opportunity for a hearing to review the circumstances of the suspension or expulsion and any other factors the Superintendent determines to be relevant. |
| SCHEDULING AND ASSIGNMENT |
The Principal, along with the child’s previous teachers, will assign each student to the appropriate classroom and the program in which the student will be participating. Any questions or concerns about the assignment should be discussed with the Principal.
Schedules are provided to each middle school student at the beginning of the school year or upon enrolling. The schedule is based upon the student’s needs and available space. Any changes in a student’s schedule should be handled through the guidance office. It is important to note that some courses that are requested by the student may be denied because of available space or the need to take prerequisites. Students are expected to follow their schedules. Any variation should be approved with a pass or schedule change. |
| EARLY DISMISSAL |
| No student will be allowed to leave school prior to dismissal time without either (a) a written request signed by the parent or guardian, or (b) the parent or guardian coming to the office or calling the office requesting the release. No student will be released to a person other than a custodial parent or guardian without a permission note signed by the custodial parent or guardian. |
| TRANSFERS FROM SCHOOL |
| If a student plans to transfer to another school, the parent must notify the principal. School records will be transferred within fourteen (14) days to the new school district. |
| IMMUNIZATIONS |
| Each student should have the immunizations required by law or have an authorized waiver. If a student does not have the necessary shots or waivers, the principal may remove the student or require compliance with a set deadline. This is for the safety of all students and in accordance with State law. Any questions about immunizations or waivers should be directed to the principal or the school nurse. |
