Attendance
Parents, it is imperative that students arrive to school on time and daily. Students are tardy after 8:30 am. If arriving after the tardy time, parents must check in through the Front Office to sign in their child. Parents must notify the front office of any absences. To ensure your child receives their full instructional time, early pickups are approved for emergencies and doctor appointments only!After five tardies or early sign outs, students will be determined as truant, a pattern of non-attendance. In some cases, law enforcement may be contacted if early signouts have affected your child’s education. Let's’ work together to ensure your child’s attendance remains consistent to guarantee a successful academic school year.
