*** Reminder about our Attendance and Excuses Policy
EXCUSES
Pupils who have been tardy or absent from school are required to bring a signed excuse to school immediately upon returning after absence. The excuse shall contain the following information:
1. The date of absence or tardiness
2. The reason for absence or tardiness
3. The signature of parent or guardian
Excuses are classified as “Excused” or “Unexcused” according to the reasons for absence. The school law lists the following reasons as “excused” absences:
1. Illness to the pupil
2. Quarantine of the home
3. Impassable roads
4. Death in the immediate family
5. Exceptionally urgent reasons
Doctor’s excuses are not needed after absences from school for the following reasons: common cold, chicken pox, injury, surgery, or other common complaints.
Doctors’ excuses may be required of those pupils who are frequently absent from school and claim illness as the reason for absence.
PLEASE NOTE: All excuses must be turned in to the guidance office, emailed to pweir@seal-pa.org or faxed to 570-372-2272 within 3 school days after the student returns to school following the absence. If it is not returned after three days, all absences will remain illegal. Also please note that students are allotted 10 days of absence per school year (this includes educational trip days). All absences after 10 days will require a medical note.
