Student Safety


As staff at St. Dominic School we are committed to the safety and well-being of our students. Each year we revisit our practices to offer the best environment. Please note after our last CSCC meeting we have some changes to our practices for open and closed doors during the school day.

  1. The front door to the school on Dieppe St. will be open all day from 7:30 – 4pm.
  2. The two back doors facing the playground will be open at 8:10 am, closed at 9am, opened for parents at 11:40am, closed again after lunch and reopen at 3:10pm for parents.
  3. We ask students arriving late to school to use the front door and report to the office.
  4. All visitors including parents/guardians must enter through the front doors and report to the office before proceeding to a classroom during class time.
  5. We ask parents or guardians who are on school grounds to please let a staff member know you are here. Our staff members are wearing orange vests while on supervision.
  6. Please call the school if your child is sick or away for the day.
  7. Unless students go home for lunch they are expected to stay on the school grounds unless under special circumstances a signed note by a parent is provided to classroom teacher.
  8. Students are expected to arrive no earlier than 8:30am unless a coach has requested an early practice.
  9. Supervision outside will occur at 8:35 am unless wind chill temperatures or conditions encourage indoor recess. Indoor supervision will begin at 8:30am.
  10. Please complete emergency forms at start of year and contact the office for changes to phone numbers occurring during the year.
  11. Following dismissal at noon hour or at the end of the day we ask that students do the following:
    1. Walk with a friend or group of friends
    2. Go directly home or to child care provider
    3. Be aware of their surroundings and who is nearby
  12. Please contact the school if you have any questions.
Yours in Education
