ATTENDANCE
Please call the school by 9:00 am if you child will not be
attending. We have voice mail, so
you may leave a message 24 hours a day. If you do leave a message, PLEASE STATE THE REASON for the
absence. A call with no reason given does not necessarily make the absence
excused. If you do not have a phone, be sure to send a note with the student
the next day explaining the reason for the absences. If there is not a call or the student does not bring a note,
that student will be assigned ALC for 2 days as if they were truant from
school. If a note is brought in
the following morning, the ALC will be rescinded.
