Attendance and Drop Out Prevention

Truancy notifications are automatically generated and sent by the district based on the following attendance codes:

•  'O' (unverified/unexcused absence)

•  'U' (unexcused absence)

Truancy notification are sent as follows:

•  3+ unexcused absences - 1st Truancy Warning Notice = Remind notification

• 7+ unexcused absences - 2nd Truancy-Attendance Notice = Email from Assistant Principal

• 10+ unexcused absences - 3rd Truancy Final Warning Notice = Remind notification

To avoid receiving automatic truancy notifications, please provide documentation for your student's absence within 2 days of returning to campus. Documentation can be emailed to HMSattendance@leanderisd.org or your student can turn it in at the Attendance Office.

• Notes received late will be accepted for a student's file, but attendance coding may not change.

• Changes cannot be made to absences in previous grading cycles.
