 Do I have to report my child's absence?
All absences must be phoned into the main office as soon as possible on the 
day of the absence. When your child returns back to school following an 
absence, they must bring in a note explaining the nature of the absence. If 
your child is under the care of your doctor, please bring in a note from 
the doctor.

 Can I request that homework be sent home to my child when they are ill?
Homework pick-up can be arranged through the main office. We ask that you request 
work after two days absent. When you are calling in your child absent, please let me 
know at that time if you are requesting homework. You can pick it up at the end of the 
day or ask another student to bring it home.
