Attendance

Attendance

Student success is directly tied to attendance.  In the event of an absence, parents are requested to call the school before 9:30 a.m. the day of the child's absence.  If this is not possible, a note should be brought to the secretary or teacher from a parent or guardian stating the date(s) and reason(s) for the absence. While appreciated, a message to your child's teacher is not considered an official notification to the school, you are required to contact the secretary to report absences.

In the event of tardiness, students must report to the office for a late slip.  Repeated tardiness is considered a disruptive behavior and will be treated as a discipline problem.

Students must remain on school property during school hours.  If a legal guardian would like to take a child before the end of the school day, for lunch or other reasons, he/she must come inside and officially sign the student out.  If an adult comes to pick up a child other than his/her own child, written consent is mandatory.  Under no circumstances can anyone other than the legal guardian pick up a child without the above mentioned written consent.
