How Can Parents Help Us with Attendance?
When your child is sick
- Only let your child stay home if he/she is truly sick. Sometimes complaints of a headache or stomach ache might be a sign of anxiety and not a reason to stay home. Contact the school counselor for support if you think this might be happening.
- The Sick Day Guidelines for Families may be helpful if you are not sure if you should keep your child at home due to illness. See the guideline using the link below.
- Make every effort to schedule doctor, dentist, and other appointments after school hours.
- If your child must be out of school for an appointment, get him/her back to school for at least part of the school day.
- Plan vacations when school is not in session.
