Attendance

Goal: 7 Absences or Fewer

Regular attendance fosters a classroom community between teachers and students. Students who attend school regularly are more likely to succeed academically. Students gain background knowledge from discussions while learning in school. Attending school also provides time for social interactions with peers. Each day your child is not in school is a missed opportunity for them to learn something they will need in order to understand more difficult material later. Help your child succeed in their future by bringing them to school everyday, on time, and for the entire school day.

Absence Verification

It is the parent’s/legal guardian’s responsibility to provide documentation to verify the reason(s) for absence within 10 school days after the student returns to school in order to prevent absences from being recorded as uncleared or unexcused and counting towards truancy. Absences include coming to school late and leaving early.
