Parents/Guardians are asked to call the school to report when their child will be absent.  If the school is not notified (before 11:00), school personnel will attempt to call the parent/guardian.  Students who have been absent must also bring a written, signed statement by a parent/guardian - explaining the reason for the absence within two days following the student's return to school after his/her absence to enable the student to make up missed assignments and obtain approval for the absence to be excused.  A note from the student's physician will also be accepted and may be required if absences are excessive.  Students without a note will be required to see an Administrator before returning to class.  This is a new requirement started by the district the last week in January.
