- If a student receives a Saturday School related to a disciplinary situation, they are informed by the administration; they receive a slip from the office; a copy is mailed home; the parents are informed by the administration during the disciplinary communication (phone call or email) depending on the availability of the parent or guardian.
Who Supervises Saturday School?
Generally, a DHS staff member supervises Saturday School. In the event of an emergency, an administrator or an administrative assistant will supervise.
