Thank you for your attention to this safety matter.

We understand that not all guests are able to enjoy the weekend performance of Annie Jr on Saturday, May 6 at 2:00 p.m. Therefore, we have opened up the Friday school performance to any friends or family members that are unable to attend Saturday. This is a dress rehearsal for the students so they have an opportunity to perform with an audience prior to the main event on Saturday.

We are happy to give families this extra opportunity to see their rising star perform. Please note that all performers will not be available for pictures or flowers after the performance. The director will be meeting with the cast and crew immediately following the show on Friday. Flowers can be given when you see your child after school. Thank you for understanding.

All guests to the school must enter through the main doors and sign in at the office. Seating will begin at 1:20.

As a reminder, STMM follows the following policy. Below is a summary of the larger Dioscian policy. Please take time to review the information below.

Absenteeism and Truancy Policy 5134B

The Illinois School Code requires that any school, including a nonpublic school, receiving funds through participation in the federal/state milk, breakfast, and/or lunch programs shall develop and communicate to its students and their parent or guardian, on an annual basis, an absenteeism and truancy policy, that contains certain provisions.

School attendance is compulsory in the State of Illinois. The responsibility of compliance with the law belongs to the parents, but the school is required to keep a record of daily attendance. The record is placed in the student’s permanent file at the end of each school year.

A student who is subject to compulsory school attendance shall not be absent without a valid cause. The following

• Vacations
• personal days
• family obligations
• visiting relatives
• transportation issues are not considered valid causes for absence. A student who is absent without valid cause is a truant student.

When a student is truant, the School administration will be in contact with the parent/ guardian. The School’s contact with the parent/guardian is for the purpose of determining the reason for the student’s absence and further discussion if the absence is without valid cause. If the administration is unsuccessful in reaching the parent/guardian or the emergency contacts, the School will notify the police and request a well-being check on the student/family.

If a student fails to resume regular attendance in school, and the student’s absence without valid cause exceeds more than five percent (5%) of the total attendance days in the school year, the student is deemed a truant minor and written notice shall be sent to the parent/guardian stating that the student’s truancy is being reported to the Illinois State Board of Education. This may be done through the truancy department of the Regional Office of Education. Additionally, the School may drop the student from enrollment.

All student attendance will be reviewed in the next two weeks. Families will be contacted if their student is at risk of truancy.

If you are calling your child into school absent you MUST contact the SCHOOL OFFICE by 9:00.
