Attendance Phone Number: 402-715-1470

If your student is going to be absent for the day, or any part of the day, please contact the office as soon as possible to let us know. You may also send an e-mail to kjturgeon@mpsomaha.org.

Without notification to the office, absences will be coded "Unexcused - no call from parent”. Multiple unexcused absences could lead to the involvement of the county attorney per district policy.

If you need to fax a doctor or dental note, our fax number is 402-715-1490. Please send it to "Attention Kali".

Homework requests should be directed to your child's teachers via e-mail. The Staff Directory is located under the Parent tab at the top of the website. Homework can also be found under the Homework tab, also located on top of the web page.

Please Note the Following Items:

• If you know your child will be picked up during the day for any reason (appointment, vacation, etc.) , please contact the office as soon as you can in the morning so that we can get a pass to your student. This is appreciated and a much less disruptive way of pulling your student out of class. If anyone other than a parent or guardian is picking up the student, we must have verbal permission from the parent or guardian and the person’s name.
• Please let your student know that if they are not feeling well during the day, they need go to the nurse’s office. The nurse/health para will note the student’s symptoms. If the student goes home, they must be checked out through the nurse’s office.
• If your child needs to see a teacher before school (Tu.-Fri.), they must check in at the office by 7:20 am when we make an announcement for those teachers. They are allowed to go back before and after the 7:20 announcement as long as they have a yellow corridor pass from their teacher.
• If you need homework for your student due to illness or vacation, you will need to e-mail the teachers and they will bring it up to the office after school.
• Entry into the building during the day is only through the south doors (front of the building). If you are picking up a sick child, you will go to the nurse’s office and pick them up there. For any other business, please come to the main office.
• You can view the announcements your student hears each day on our “Daily Announcements” section on the Kiewit website. It is located under the “Students” tab of our home page (http://kms.mpsomaha.org).
• If your student is riding a bus home with another student (other than their normal bus route or a student that does not normally ride the bus), we must hear from the riders parent/guardian by 2:45 pm giving permission. The office will then give the rider a permission slip to give to the bus driver.
• If you ever wonder whether a practice/game has been canceled, we will display the information on the home page of our website by 2 pm. We will only display the information if it has been canceled or the time has changed; we will not display any information if practice/game is on as scheduled.
