Reporting an absence?

Include: student name, your name and relationship to student, date(s) of the absence, reason for the absence and your phone number. Attendance records can only be cleared within 5 school days.

Picking up your student Early? 

Please make every effort to call or email at least one hour before expected dismissal time! If you know in advance, you can send a note in with your student to get dismissed early. Students leaving early must have school authorization by way of a "Blue Slip" to exit campus. Failure to get a Blue Slip before leaving campus will result in a truancy. Parents/guardians may not call to clear a truancy after the student has left campus.
