Chronic Absenteeism
Missing 18 or more days (10%) over the course of an entire school year regardless of the reason.
Please ensure that your child attends school every day and logs in on time. Here are a few practical tips to help support regular attendance:
- Make sure your child keeps a regular bedtime and establishes a morning routine.
- Ensure your child logs in every day unless they are truly sick. If your child must be absent from school, please have him/her complete any missed assignments in a timely manner.
- Email or go to the help desk promptly to address issues with technology. https://www.rvaschools.net/technolog or contact our school secretary, Ms. Julie Lawson.
- Develop back up plans for getting your child logged in for school if something comes up. Call on a family member, neighbor, or another parent to help get your child logged into school daily. One benefit of virtual learning is that students can attend school anywhere!
- If childcare is an issue, consider applying for one of the emergency childcare centers, which still have lots of open seats. Please reach out to our school counselor for more information, Marsha Williford (mwillifo@rvaschools.net).
