PARKING LOT REMINDER

Parents and guardians are reminded that the main driveway is ONE WAY at all times. This is necessary to allow the busses access to the property and for the general safety of all. Parents please remind your student drivers that they too must observe the one-way system in the parking lot; failure to do so can result in demerits, and/or the loss of their driving/parking privilege.

Parents who drive their children to school must drop passengers at the rear of the building in the marked lane. Cars are to pull forward to the end of the lane (closets to the football field) to drop off passengers. No stopping or standing is permitted in the driveway or unoccupied parking spaces or on Cuthbert Road. The speed limit in the parking lot is 15 m.p.h. For safety reasons, drivers picking up students at the end of the day must remain in their vehicles.

ARRIVAL PROCEDURE

1. All students will enter through the Door C3 in the rear of the building near the Gym
2. Students must be in full uniform when entering the building, this includes every student wearing their ID cards daily
3. Students should arrive at school between 7:15 am and 7:55 am. As a reminder to all, please be mindful of the traffic on Cuthbert Road in the morning and leave earlier to arrive on time. Students must be in homeroom by 8:05 am.
4. For students who arrive between 7:15 and 7:55 am: Grades 9 and 10 will report to the dining hall, grades 11 and 12 will report to homerooms. All students should by in homeroom by 8:05 am.
5. Students who are late to school must enter through the C2 doors and report to Room 114 with their late note immediately after entering.

Dress Code:  All uniform guidelines can be found in the Student Handbook and on our website. Please see the Student Handbook for full details.

Arrival Procedures for Guests, Parents, and Vendors: All guests, parents, and vendors must enter through the main office doors after a visual inspection via camera and verbally explaining the reason for their visit via intercom. Once a guest, parent, or vendor has been allowed into the waiting area, they must sign in with main office staff and wait there for further instructions. All guests must be approved beforehand and all vendors must be accompanied by the person who has engaged their services while the vendor is on campus. 

Attendance:

CLICK HERE for important notices regarding attendance and absences.

Student Lateness: 

Students are expected to be in their homeroom at the 8:05 am bell. A student who enters first period or the school building after the 8:05 am bell is considered late for school and must report to the Office of Student Affairs, Room 114 for a late pass to gain admission to first period. Students who arrive after 8:45 am with an unexcused lateness are not allowed to participate in athletic or other extracurricular activities that day. Students who accumulate 4 unexcused latenesses will be issued a detention. Followup detentions will be issued in increments of four unexcused latenesses (4, 8, 12, 16, etc.). 

Early Dismissals:  We request that all appointments are scheduled after school hours. For those appointments that must happen during school and require an early dismissal, the student must bring a note to the Office of Student Affairs before 8:05 am. 

Before School Policy: Doors to school open at 7:15 AM. All juniors and seniors may populate their hallways upstairs. All freshmen and sophomores MUST wait in the dining hall until 8:00 AM. Our foodservice vendor, Brock & Company, will provide breakfast for purchase daily during this time. 

After School Policy: Only students who have a supervised activity or permission from a school official may remain in the school building after dismissal. Students who are waiting for transportation home must report to the dining hall by 3:00 pm. Students waiting for rides will wait in our after-school study hall. Students may not remain on school property after school hours unless attending an official school function or the after-school study hall. The afternoon study hall closes at 6pm. Students will be required to sign in to After School Study and will not be allowed to leave the school building and then return for safety reasons.

Official School Detention: 

Detentions are held on Mondays and Wednesdays from 2:45 – 4 pm. Students receive at least twenty-four (24) hours’ notice; therefore, students may not reschedule a detention.

TUITION OBLIGATIONS

Thank you in advance for your responsibility to pay tuition for the excellent education your students are receiving. Please remember, as of August 1, 2023. Camden Catholic will follow strict tuition policies and procedures, which have been verified by our Board of Trustees to be sure that Camden Catholic remains fiscally responsible. The following are the rules stated in the tuition contract to be strictly enforced. 

1. All payments 60 days late will receive a letter and students will NOT be able to participate in any practices, games, or after school activities or clubs. This includes dances or any trips. This will be strictly enforced. All coaches and moderators will receive this letter to make them aware. For example, if at the end of August if your tuition is 60 days late, your student will NOT be able to participate in the sport they practiced all summer. This policy will follow all year. 
2. All payments 90 days late will receive a letter and the student will be suspended and not able to return until their balance is paid in full. This disrupts the academic welfare of the student and it is not a favorable rule, however, we need all families to understand the school has bills to pay each month. 
3. All families who have an invoice, may NOT pay at school. ALL payments must go through FACTS in one of three ways: 1) online through FACTS (online.FACTSmgt.com), 2) phone payment (866-441-4637), 3) check/money order (be sure to put your customer # on the check) mail to: FACTS MGT, PO Box 2597, Omaha, NE 68103-2597
4. All calls for balances, account changes, etc. must go through the Parent Information number provided by FACTS (866-441-4637) This is the service that FACTS provide to all families.
5. If you have not set up your username and password to make these things possible, you should call this Parent number above. Without a username and password, you cannot do much on FACTS. It is part of your responsibility to manage your own tuition information. 
6. Payment date changes can no longer be made by the school tuition office. Each account is allowed 6 payment date changes. Please call the Parent information number provided by FACTS.
7. All parents of seniors, please know that students do not walk in graduation or participate in senior trip and activities if balances are not paid by May 1, 2024.
