Regular school attendance is important to your child’s progress in school. In order for your child to do his or her best, it is important that he / she be in school as many days as possible. When it is necessary for your child to be absent from school, he / she must have a note from the parent or guardian explaining the reason(s) for the absence. The parent or guardian may also telephone the absence line in the morning to verify the absence.
Excused absences include illness, medical appointments, and attendance at a funeral for a member of one’s immediate family (1 day in town and three days for out of state funerals). Exclusion of students failing to meet immunization requirements (5 days maximum) and religious holidays when pre-approved by the principal.
Please assist us by calling at 248-7070 before 10:00 a.m. each day that your child is absent and state the reason for the absence. Mrs. Vasquez, Mrs. Fehr, or Ms. Rivers can assist you. Please remember to call your child’s teacher and make arrangements for homework for each day of absence.
