Attendance
Studies have shown that students who attend school on a daily basis do much better than those with frequent absences. Even a few days can make a difference, so we encourage your student to come to school daily, and to schedule medical appointments after school when at all possible.
If it is necessary for your child to attend a medical appointment during school hours, you must get a note from the doctor to clear your child's absense or it will be listed as unexcused. Please send a note with your student prior to their being out. That way when you show up your child will be ready and waiting for you, and we won't have to interrupt a classroom lesson to call him or her.
Any time your child will be out, please call the 24 hour attendance line at 971-7853 x 1. Leave your name, relationship to the child, the student's name and reason for absence.
Thank you for caring about your students education.
