Attendance Procedures

The school day begins at 8:10 a.m. and ends at 3:10 p.m. REMHS students are expected to attend all class sessions. There is a direct correlation between a student's grades and his/her attendance. Daily attendance at school is necessary to achieve success in coursework. Therefore, punctual and regular attendance is essential.

Once a student arrives at school, he/she is expected to remain until 3:10 p.m. Students who must leave school during the day must check out through the Attendance Office. Students are not allowed to leave campus for breakfast or lunch. Students who leave campus without properly checking out will receive disciplinary consequences. Students who check out must leave campus.

All students arriving after 8:10 AM must check in with the Attendance Office. Students who fail to check in at the Attendance Office upon arrival will not be excused. STUDENTS MUST CHECK IN AND RECEIVE A TARDY PASS, EVEN IF THEY ARRIVE DURING TRANSITION.

If a student arrives at school and has an appointment card, doctor's note, or parent note, they must go to the attendance office to turn in their note. Parents do not need to walk their child in if they are tardy. A note will suffice.

We are closely monitoring tardiness, so please remind your student that we will be doing daily hall sweeps to ensure that students are getting to class on time. Detentions will be issued.

Parents can sign their student out in the front office (must show a photo ID). The student will be called from the classroom at that time.

Students must check out at the Attendance Office before leaving campus. REMHS is a closed campus. If a student decides to leave campus FOR ANY REASON without officially checking out with the Attendance Office, they will receive a consequence, and the absence will not be excused. 

Our students' safety is our top priority.
