Student Attendance Is Critical Attendance plays an important role in getting good grades in school. Attendance is mandated - and enforceable through fines - under Maryland State law for students ages five to sixteen. Under this law, parents and guardians are responsible for ensuring that their child attends school or is provided with regular, thorough, home instruction during the school year in the subjects taught by public schools. Maryland law also provides the following list of reasons that students can be "lawfully" absent from school: 1. Death in the immediate family. 2. Illness of student. 3. Court Summons. 4. Hazardous weather conditions. 5. Work approved or sponsored by the school, the local school system, or the State Department of Education, accepted by the local superintendent of schools or the school principal, or their designees as reason for excusing the students. 6. Observance of a religious holiday. 7. State emergency. 8. Suspension. 9. Lack of authorized transportation. 10. Other emergency or set of circumstances which, in the judgement of the superintendent or designee, constitutes a good and sufficient cause for absence from school. Lawful or legitimate absences require a written explanation from the parent, guardian, or custodian of the student and should be submitted to the designated school authority upon return to school. This written note should include the date of the absence as well as the reason. What about students who are late for school? It is important for students to be on time for school because the official school roll book is marked during homeroom. Student comming late to school are required to obtain a late pass before being admitted to any classroom. Students are required to bring a note from the parent or guardian explaining the reason for the lateness. Classroom instruction start at 7:45 and ends at 1:50 p.m. We, the staff at Perrywood Elementary School, would like your child to be successful in school. In order for this to happen, students must attend school on a regular basis. When students are absent or tardy, they miss important information that can best be understood when they hear it directly from classroom teachers.
