To add Home Release to a student’s schedule, the parent/guardian will need to reach out to the appropriate Counselor indicating their approval and which periods are to be scheduled with Home Release. This can be done through email, in person or phone.
There are many options to take advantage of while in High School. Before thinking Home Release is the “easier option,” please consider adding College courses, JATC programs, or any elective classes you would like to know more about. High School is a great time to figure out your interests, complete pathways, develop skills or earn college credit. Please keep in mind, Home Release is typically not an option your Counselor would recommend, but we definitely know there are circumstances that warrant this option.
