Question

"Emergency contact must be someone other than the primary parent/guardian.", who should an emergency contact be?

Answer 1

Emergency contact has to be someone other than your parents/guardians. You/your guardians should choose someone as emergency contact whom you can trust and is responsible. When your guardians will not be available, then the school stuff will contact the emergency contact. Emergency contact can't be you.

Answer 2

Emergency contacts must be someone other than a parent/guardian. If you submit a change in ParentVUE to add yourself or the child’s other parent/guardian as an emergency contact, it will be denied by school staff. Schools will always attempt to contact the parents/guardians first and will call emergency contacts only when parents/guardians are not available
