Attendance
A parent must provide an explanation for any absence upon the student’s arrival or return to school. The student or parent (via email) must submit a note signed by the parent. The campus may accept a phone call from the parent but reserves the right to require a written note.
A note signed by the student will not be accepted unless the student is age 18 or older or is an emancipated minor under state law.
The campus will document in its attendance records whether the absence is excused or unexcused.
Please contact your campus attendance clerk with any questions and/or to submit a note.
