Attendance

 

Our goal for attendance is to have 90% of our students at school 90% of the time to ensure that students are progressing academically. We encourage students to be at school and on time every day (bell-to-bell). If a child must be absent from school, please contact the attendance clerk. The attendance clerk will make every attempt to verify absences. If possible, please schedule appointments before or after school to maximize your child’s instructional time. A student is considered truant from school if they have excessive, non-justified absences, even with the consent of the parent/guardian.

 

Students arriving at school after 7:45 a.m. must be signed in by a parent or guardian. This is done in the main office and students will be marked tardy to school and given a pass to class.

 

 

To ensure the safety of students, individuals entering the school to pick up a child before dismissal must go to the main entrance security office, present identification, and sign the student out of school. Students will not be released to any person who is not listed on the student’s record. Anyone sent to pick up a student must be verified by the office. Teachers will not release students to anyone unless they have been instructed to do so by the office. Please make sure all your student’s contact information is current in case we need to call with questions. All early pickups must happen before 2:50. Once afternoon dismissal begins, students will not be called out of class.

 

 

Students are not allowed to leave campus without being checked out by a parent or guardian. Students who leave campus without permission will be issued consequences.
