in the following items: Original Birth Certificate for your child, something showing that you live at a
Park Ridge address, Physical and Immunization records, Social security number and the name and
telephone number of the previous school your child attended, so we can request your child’s records.

going home with another child, both children need to bring in notes. Thank you so much for your
cooperation!!!
Please call the office if your child is absent or is going to be absent. It is required by law that we contact
you if your child is not in school. We really appreciate hearing from you, so we don’t have to bother you at home. We have an attendance line that you may leave your child’s information on. Please send in a note on your child’s return to school with your child’s first and last name, teacher, date, and reason your child was
absent from school. Attendance is very, very important to your child’s success at school.
