Attendance
Things to remember about attendance procedures at our school:
1) School starts at 7:45 a.m.—students who are not in class by 7:55 a.m. are considered tardy. Students who are 30 or more minutes tardy, will be considered as a “POD30”, which is a part-of-day attendance violation.
2) K- 5th Dismissal is at 3:05 p.m. (Pre-K 3:15 p.m.)—students may not be released after 2:30 p.m. because dismissal procedures will have already started.
3) Students who are picked up before dismissal time will be considered as an “early leave”, which is a part-of-day attendance violation.
4) Excuse notes for absences must be returned to the front office no later than 3 days after returning to school.
5) If your child has excessive absences that have been excused by parent notes, the principal has a right to not allow anymore parent notes as excuses--only doctor's notes or notes from the school nurse will be excused.
Let us know how we can best support you and your children so that they can show up for school on time every day. We want your child to be successful in school! If you have any questions or need more information please contact our front office.
Transportation
- Arrival and dismissal have been running smoothly! A big thank you to everyone for following directions and being patient during wait times. It gets busy!
