Attendance Procedures

  • Absences
     Send a parent note or a doctor's note with your child within 3 days of returning to school to receive an excused absence. If you have access to a printer, feel free to use the absence note template.
     Only 3 parent note absences will be allowed per semester.

    Tardies
    *** Tardies and early check-outs will count against Perfect Attendance.
     When a student arrives after the tardy bell has rung, a parent/guardian ​must​ escort the student to the office.
    If the student arrives at school after 10:20 a.m., he/she will be reported as absent. The absence will be excused if he/she has been to the doctor prior to arriving at school; however, the student must present a note from the doctor. Although the absence will be excused for state attendance purposes, the child will not be eligible for the campus Perfect Attendance Award.
     Checking the student out prior to dismissal time should be reserved for doctor’s appointments and family emergencies and should be done prior to 3:15pm.  Although the early out will be excused for state attendance purposes, the child will not be eligible for the campus Perfect Attendance Award
     Only people listed by the parent on the Emergency Contact Form will be allowed to remove the student from campus. No Exceptions.
     Failure to pick students up at dismissal in a timely manner could result in request of assistance from the local law authorities.
