Hayes Intermediate 5/6 School

5/5/25: What are they digging?

Now that the ground has dried up enough, construction (funded by the bond) has resumed on the driveways that will run along the south side of Hayes Intermediate! This construction will help alleviate morning and afternoon traffic congestion on Nixon Road and enhance safety. Over the summer, all parking areas will be redone to further enhance safety. This will go along with secure entrance construction, HVAC upgrades, and limited classroom construction. The upgrades will be amazing to see this August!

The main entrance of the school will be through Door #19 (near the existing Student Services office). Signs will help guide the way to the new (temporary) entrance.

Important information about the attendance policy:

The absence limit for the school year is five full days before attendance letters follow. Because we must follow State law and we are held accountable by the State for students being present in school on a regular basis, we will follow our county-wide protocol in notifying families of students that exceed the five absence limit, explained or unexplained, this school year via email with attendance letters that are sent in a progressive fashion. As parents, we understand that students become ill and they may miss multiple school days. If this is the case, please be sure to obtain a doctor’s note regarding your student’s illness/treatment plan and provide this note to our secretaries immediately following your student’s absence. Medically documented absences are coded differently than absences explained or unexplained. 

If you plan to volunteer or need to enter the building for an extended period of time, including chaperoning for the upcoming dance party, please fill out this application. This is REQUIRED when coming to volunteer in our building. It takes a couple of days for the background check to be completed, so please plan accordingly based on your volunteering schedule

         Bus drop off and pick up:

The students that use the Grand Ledge buses will all be dropped off at the north end of the building. The buses will be lined up at the end of the day for the students to get on the buses to go home.

FOR MORNING DROP OFF:

Students will be asked to wait in the gymnasium until school  starts.  If your student would like  breakfast they will start in the Cafe.

Families arriving from the south will turn right into the parking lot, staying on the right side of the lane, and drop their students near the front door. Students should exit from the passenger side of the car.

Families arriving from the north will make an immediate left to drive in the outer Hayes lot. Proceed to the crosswalk and the students will be signaled by an adult to cross on the crosswalk to the building.

         Picking up a student during school hours:

           Our staff will not call students to the office to leave for the day until the person picking them up has                       shown their ID and has signed them out. Please plan accordingly for appointments and give yourself a                   few extra minutes. Additionally please make sure your students' contact information is up to date. If                       someone comes to pick up your student  but they are not on your student emergency contact list we will             not allow your student to be signed out by that person.

FOR AFTERNOON PICK UP:

5th grade - Families will enter the parking lot from the south or the north.  North will make an immediate left to drive in the outer Hayes lot. Students will be directed to use the crosswalk by an adult.  Exit the parking area using the exit lanes in the center of the Hayes parking lot.

6th grade - Families may pick up your students at the back carline if you choose.

Please continue to use caution and be vigilant for pedestrians in the parking lot and behind the school. Please use low speeds at all times in the Hayes parking lot. Thank you so much!
