Each absence interferes with your child’s ability to benefit from his/her class. In case of absence, parents are asked to call the school or the teacher by 10:00 a.m. to explain the reason for the absence. If the child is absent without a phone call, the school will call the home to check on the child. Any assignments missed should be made up within the time frame given by the teacher. Two unexcused absence will require a conference with the school’s staff. School hours are 10am-2pm. Half day attendance is not allowed. In other words, a child will not be allowed to only attend the first two periods and be excused for the last period without a valid excuse.
