Absence Policy - (POLICY #5030)
1. On the school day following an absence from school, students must report to the attendance office.
2. Students will present to the attendance officer a written statement bearing the following information: present date, student’s full name date of the absence, reason for the absence, signature of parent/guardian.
3. It must be clearly understood that simply presenting a note bearing a parent’s signature does not automatically excuse the absence. School officials reserve the right to check the validity of written notes.
4. Students who do not present a note explaining an absence will be assigned a detention. If a student brings in an excused note within 48 hours and it is accepted, the detention will be cancelled.
5. Work missed must be made up as directed by the teacher no later than 48 hours after returning to school, unless other arrangements have been made.
6. Truancy consists of being absent from school without authorization of parent/guardian and/or school authorities. To account for legitimately missed days, students must bring a note excusing the absence within two days of the day missed.
