ATTENDANCE
Students must
come to school on time every day. When your child returns to school following
an absence, please send a note stating the reason for the absence. Absences will
be considered UNEXCUSED until a written note is submitted. Excused absences
include:
illness (Dr.'s statement is required for
10 or more consecutive
days.)
- death in the family
- religious holiday ( A statement from the religious
group leader is required.)
- other reasons must be submitted to the principal
for consideration prior to the incident.
-
excused absences are counted toward the total number accumulated per
child.
By law, more
than five (5) unexcused absences
will result in a referral to the juvenile court for a hearing. Parents will
receive a letter and the Director of Schools will be
notified. After 10 absences, a
doctor's note must accompany the child upon his/her return to school. This
includes both excused and unexcused absences.
If your child must be excused
during the day for an appointment, please send a note stating the reason and the time for dismissal. NO
STUDENT WILL BE PERMITTED TO LEAVE THE SCHOOL GROUNDS UNLESS HIS/HER PARENT (OR DESIGNEE ) COMES TO SCHOOL TO
SIGN THE STUDENT OUT.
Be prepared to show photo ID. No
student will be dismissed after 3:10. All car riders after this time will
be picked up in the car rider line. Children who are car riders will be
dismissed at 3:35.
Please check
your student out through
the office and wait in the office area for the student to be called. No
students will be dismissed to parents (or caregivers) in hallways or directly
from classrooms. For safety reasons, during regular dismissal, car
riders will dismissed ONLY through the car rider line (Hawk Walk
door). PERFECT
ATTENDANCE
Annual perfect attendance awards are
given at the end of the year based on the State time requirements for perfect
attendance. The accumulation of five or more tardies and/or early dismissals
will disqualify a student from receiving this recognition.
PHONE NOTIFICATION SYSTEM
Our school and school district have a great way to keep you, as parents,
informed. We will be using Blackboard Connect, Inc., to
keep you in the know about school and district events and to notify you in case
of an emergency. Our transportation department will call you if your
child's bus is running more than 15 minutes late in the afternoon. The
system also has an e-mail feature that allows an email to be sent to you as well
as the phone call. In addition, the school office will use this system to
notify you when your child is not in school. Please
make sure that important contact information such as phone numbers and email
addresses are correct and legible and on file in the school office. Any
time a change occurs, please notify the school office. Our system
will call up to six phone numbers in case on an emergency. Other messages
will be sent to the main number listed. We are excited about
this technology, because we believe it helps us keep you better informed about
our schoo and events affecting your children.
