Attendance and Bell Schedule

Students are expected to attend school on a regular basis. A written note from the parents explaining the reason for any absence must be brought to the front office upon returning to school.

We will be in contact regarding absences the following ways:

• After 3 Absences - Parents will be contacted by phone
• After 5 Absences - Parents will be contacted by phone and letter
• After 8 Absences - Parents will be contacted by letter, and a parent conference will be held

To facilitate student success, early checkouts are discouraged. Students who are present for at least one-half of the instructional day or three full periods whichever is greater, shall be counted present for perfect attendance purposes. The accumulation of five (5) or more partial attendance days, in any combination of tardies and early dismissals, within a 9-week grading period shall disqualify a student from perfect attendance recognition. Tardies and early dismissals are both considered partial attendance and shall be treated in a similar manner.

A student who has not missed a day of school for any reason earns perfect attendance. Students who do not attend school during a major part of the day may not attend school functions in the afternoon or evening.
