ATTENDANCE

Consistent and regular attendance is paramount to student development and success. When students are present and on time they build the habits, connections, and confidence that help them succeed all year long. Early attendance sets the tone, it ensures they don’t miss critical introductions to routines, expectations, and learning, and it helps them feel part of the community right away. Every day in the first weeks is an opportunity to make friends, meet teachers, and start building momentum toward their goals. If your student will be absent or tardy, please notify the main office and classroom teacher by 8:00am on the day of absence.  If your student is absent due to illness, please copy the health office in your communication.

Our first priority is your child’s safety.  If we have not been notified of absence or tardy by the family, the main office will begin contacting families at 8:15 am.  If a child is not at school, and contact with family members has been unsuccessful, the principal may call the state police.  Students are marked absent until they arrive and check in at the main office.
