Mater Global Scholars Academy prioritizes the safety and well-being of all students and, as such, will not release students to Uber, Lyft, or similar ride-share drivers. Students will only be released to parents, legal guardians, or individuals in vehicles displaying the school-issued car decals. Releasing students to unauthorized persons poses a significant and safety concern; therefore, it will not be permitted under any circumstance. We appreciate your cooperation in helping us maintain a secure environment for all students.
The above procedures may change based on the campus needs and adjustments will be made as needed to best keep the safety of our students.
