Absence Form

A student's parent/guardian MUST complete a Bates Drama Club absence notification form if the student will miss rehearsal. 

If the student was also absent from school, this notification form is required in addition to the absence note required by Bates/AACPS. The Bates main office cannot sift through all the school absence notes for the day, identify those who are drama club members, check our rehearsal call sheet to figure out if any students have been called to a rehearsal, and notify the creative team.

It is the student's and parent's/guardian's responsibility to notify the creative team of all absences by filling out this drama club form so we can change plans accordingly if possible.
