Attendance

Parents/guardians are expected to:

1. Ensure that their children between the ages of 6 and 17 are enrolled in school and attend school regularly, on time, and for the entire school day.

2. Make personal appointments for their child after the school day or during school breaks as often as possible.

3. Provide a written excuse for every absence when your child returns to school within 3 days. An excused absence is the illness of the child, the death of a relative or a religious holiday. All other absences are considered unexcused. Family emergencies and vacation are not considered excused absences unless approved by the principal.

An absence of 3 or more consecutive days requires a doctor’s note upon return.

More Detailed Information

Lateness
Students arriving after 9:00AM are marked late. Any student coming to school at 11:00 AM or after and/or leaving school at 1:30 PM or before is considered absent ½ day. Two half days will add up to 1 full day.

Photo ID Required
Parents/guardians must bring a photo ID in order to pick up a child before regular dismissal time. Students can only be released to a parent, guardian or an adult (with photo identification) listed on the emergency contact list. This also applies to any child who is picked up late from the main lobby.
