Attendance PolicyStudents are expected to attend school every day except in cases of illness, family crisis, or observance of religious holidays. Consistent attendance is necessary for learning. Parents must call to inform the school office if their child is going to be absent. Students may not participate in any school-sponsored activities if they have been absent during the day. Accumulated absences will be recorded, and parents will receive periodic notification in this regard. Particular attention will be given to excessive absences. The only absences excused will be those necessitated by school sponsored field trips, court appearances, family bereavement or for medical reasons documented by a medical professional.
