Attendance Matters

BOARD PHILOSOPHY ON ATTENDANCE
It shall be the policy of the board to encourage regular attendance at school by all students. Regular attendance contributes not only to the probability of scholastic success but also to the development of attitudes of consistent performance, which will carry over into adult life.

ATTENDANCE PROCEDURES
A parent or legal guardian must telephone the school each day his/her child will be absent, other than for school activities, and state the reason for the absence. Parents/guardians have 24 hours to excuse an absence or the absence will remain unexcused. Notes will not be accepted in lieu of phone calls. Students who are 18 years of age or older are still the responsibility of their parents for attendance purposes.
