Just a reminder to families that student absence must be reported to the school office prior to 9am.
We monitor the daily attendance of students to:
- ensure their safety both in getting to school, and in accounting for them in an emergency
- identify students with achievement, engagement, or other issues
- meet our legal responsibilities
Parents and guardians also have legal obligations to ensure their children attend school. The school expects parents to:
- notify the school if their child is going to be absent by phone, text, or email by 9:00 am
