REPORTING ABSENCES

If a student will be absent or tardy, families should call the school attendance number before school begins that day and for each day the student is absent or tardy. When the student returns, he or she should bring a written note signed by the parent or guardian which includes the notification date, student’s full name, teacher’s name(s), grade, date(s) of absence, reason for absence as well as the name and relationship of person notifying the school. Absences not cleared within five school days will be recorded as truancy by the school.
