Absence Policy
Students are expected to be at school, on time, every day unless they are ill or have a doctor's appointment.
School attendance is closely monitored. Parents should call the school's attendance line, 566-1810, to report each absence and to give the reason for the absence.
When the school does not receive a call and/or a note regarding the absence, the absence is considered to be a "no parent response". This is an unexcused absent. The parent has 5 working days to clear the absent.
