ATTENDANCE POLICY, TARDIES, AND TRUANCEE REFERRALS
Attendance is key to student success. Parents, by law, are accountable for their child’s attendance. Student must be present 90% of the year to be promoted. Please make sure your child arrives to school between 7:10 and 7:40. Tardies are issued to students arriving after 7:40AM. If children arrive after 9AM, they are marked absent for the entire school day but are still encouraged to come, if possible. For an excused absence, please submit proper documentation to Jane.Harrell@comalisd.org within 2 days of the child’s return to school.
Please refer to your online Student Handbook for attendance policy and truancy referral information.
DROP OFF & PICK UP AT THE RANCH
When picking up your Cowboy(s) from school, please follow the traffic flow for car pick-up that is explained to the left. Review these procedures. Car tags must be visible when picking up in the car line. Students walking and riding bikes home from school will be monitored across the crosswalk on school property and from there, students are responsible for getting home once they are off school property.
