As we begin each semester, please
review the Attendance Policy and take note of the following
attendance information:
-
Though we begin each year with a
clean attendance slate, unexcused absences are cumulative for the
school year.
-
It is the parent/student
responsibility to make sure the office has the correct address and
phone contact.
-
Every five unexcused absences
results in a Truancy Letter and a four-hour Saturday School to be
served on the first Saturday School (see below) following
notification by mail. Students need to check the list posted
outside the attendance office to double check their obligation in
this area. We do send out Saturday School notification forms, but
this is only done as a courtesy.
-
Parents have three days to clear
an absence with an acceptable excuse. After that, it remains
unexcused.
-
Use ISIS and the School Messenger
to check attendance. This will allow an opportunity to correct an
error in a timely fashion.
-
15 unexcused period absences may
require a student to attend an alternative educational setting (i.e.
Ark Independent Studies or Costanoa High School).
