** Remember to send in an excuse note anytime your student is absent.  Calling in a student absent does not excuse the absence - only a submitted note or e-mail from a parent/care provider will excuse the absence.  If the student spends some part of the day in school and he/she is out for a medical/dental appointment, a note from the care provider is required to excuse the absence. A Doctor's note is required if the student missed school for an appointment, for the absence to be excused.

• An absence is considered unexcused when a note is not provided within 3 days of the student returning to school.
• A note from a care provider will only excuse the days listed.  If your student is out for longer, an additional note from a parent is required to excuse the extra days.
• If your student is sent home by the nurse, a note from a parent is still required to excuse the time your student misses school.
• If a student has a note from a doctor that has instructions for PE/Athletics, it is the student's responsibility to make a copy for the PE/Athletics teachers.  Any note that is turned in directly to the PE/Athletics teachers that is not also given to the attendance clerk will be considered unexcused for attendance purposes.
• 3 unexcused absences will result in a Truancy Warning Letter from the school.  A 2nd warning letter is sent at 8 absences.  9 or more unexcused absences (per year) will most likely result in a court appearance.
• A student is allowed 9 excused or unexcused absences per semester (18 per school year) in order to meet the Compulsory Attendance Law's 10% rule.  Absences over this amount may result in loss of credit and/or grade retention.
• The tardy bell rings at 8:10 am. Students will be counted tardy if they are not in their seats by 8:10 am.  After 10 minutes, students will be considered absent for the period they miss.

• OFFICIAL ATTENDANCE TIME IS 9:35 AM
