    Missed Work
    Any student absent three or more consecutive days may request that missed assignments be collected from teachers. A parent must make this request by 8 a.m. on the third day of absence. Assignments collected from teachers will be available between 2:00 - 2:30pm in the attendance office. Please make arrangements to pick up assignments.  Students are encouraged to contact their classmates to retrieve notes from missed classes and should see teachers individually immediately upon return to school. Students should also check with the attendance office to collect any additional assignments that were not picked up as requested.

     *We recommend that you call before coming to pick up your student's missed assignments to ensure the request has been fulfilled.
