Attendance

Students miss a vital portion of their education when they are absent or tardy to school.  While it is possible to make-up written work, class instruction, presentations, discussions and student-teacher interaction can never be recovered.  

To report a student absence, complete this google form.  An absence letter will be automatically sent to the office and your email address. 

Medical excuses must be turned-in to the office in order for the absence to be excused as medical and not Parent Excused Absence.  

Frequent absences (more than 9 days) will require a note from a doctor stating the student has a chronic illness that prevents him/her from attending school.

The following excuses shall be accepted for student absence:

• Personal illness.
• Illness or death in the immediate household.
• Observation of a religious holiday.
• Medical/Dental appointments
• Emergencies or any other occurrences which, in the judgment of the principal, may necessitate absence from school as a last resort/Superintendent’s designation.

Attendance is taken by the teacher each morning promptly at 9:00 a.m.  After this time, a student will be marked absent.  Students arriving to the classroom at 9:00 a.m. will be marked tardy.
