Attendance & Punctuality

When your child misses a day of school she/he misses many learning opportunities.  Having your child at school on time is of primary importance to us.

If your child is absent for any reason, please call the office by 8:30 a.m. the morning of the absence. Unverified absences will be considered truancies.

All students arriving at school after the first bell must report to the Office for a Tardy Slip.  Repeated tardies to school will result in loss of privileges and potential truancy documentation.

A letter will be sent to you if your child is repeatedly absent, regardless of the reason.  You may need to meet with the principal, or in some cases, be referred to the District Truant Officer.

For more information regarding the School District's Board Policy Attendance, please view the Board Policy 504BP and Administrative Regulation 504AR.

Please note when picking up a student from school:

  • We will ask you for your ID.
  • YOU MUST be listed as a contact in Infinite Campus to pick up a student. 
  • We WILL NOT RELEASE a student to someone who is not listed as a contact in Infinite Campus.
  • You can change your contacts in Infinite Campus by either contacting the office or through your Infinite Campus parent portal.

This is for the safety of your student.

~ Thank you
