encouraging them to become responsible contributing members of society.

Accidents
In case of an accident, school personnel will administer emergency care,
and parents will be notified. If a parent cannot be reached, the
physician listed on the enrollment card will be notified. All
serious accidents are reported to the superintendent.
Boundaries
Boundaries established by
MHSD #193 determine school
attendance areas. The primary residence of the parent or legal
guardian determines which school the child will attend. The
District may transfer students from their home school to another school
in order to meet special needs or to maintain the student/teacher ratios
adopted by the district and state.
