Our Daily Absence Procedure
Upon return to school from an absence, the student must submit a written parent/guardian excuse to the attendance office within three school days after the absence. This is mandatory for the absence to be excused. This absence note must include:
Students who have been absent must, upon returning to school, present promptly to the attendance office a written excuse from their parent/guardian. A parent has three school days to send the excuse to school. After that time, the absence becomes unexcused. In case of tardiness for the school day, the student must bring a written excuse from parents/guardian that same day. A STUDENT ENTERING SCHOOL AFTER HOMEROOM/CLASS IS OVER MUST CHECK IN THROUGH THE ATTENDANCE OFFICE.
