Whenever your child is absent from school, a note explaining the
absence is expected when your child returns to school in order to
receive an “excused” absence. (Only illness, a death in the family,
and religious holidays are considered excused absences by the School
Board). Otherwise, it will be marked “unexcused”. Please use your
discretion when sending your child sick to school. If they have a
fever or a virus, please try to keep them at home. Make-up work will
be given for only those who have an excused absence.
* Only 9 days are allowed per year for absences.
* If your child is tardy, a note explaining the tardiness will be needed
and your child will need to be signed in at the office before being
admitted to class.
* If your child is to be dismissed early, please if possible send a
note to the the classroom teacher. Your child will need to be
signed out before they will be released to go home.
