Mindy Story, Attendance Clerk srms_attendance@libertyhill.txed.net Online Student Absence Report - CLICK HERE
WHY DOES ATTENDANCE MATTER?
Attendance is the key to success! Regular and punctual attendance is the greatest single factor in school success. Texas Compulsory Attendance Law requires students to attend school 90% of the days class is offered, unless otherwise exempted by law. It is the responsibility of the parent and student to cooperate and communicate with the school on all attendance matters.
ALL ABSENCES REQUIRE PARENT VERIFICATION THROUGH A NOTE, EMAIL OR ONLINE FORM.
Parent emails/online forms should be submitted to the Attendance Clerk daily. Parent notes should be submitted within 48 hours of student returning to school. We are unable to change an absence (even one period) after the 6 week grading period has closed.
All notes/emails from parents/guardians should include the following:
Full legal name of student - no nicknames please
Student's grade
Date(s) of absence
Reason for absence
Parent's signature
Current date
Emails must be sent from the email account listed in Skyward Family.
PLEASE ALLOW AT LEAST 2 BUSINESS DAYS FOR THE ATTENDANCE OFFICE TO ENTER NOTES
