Consistent attendance is essential for your child’s educational progress; therefore, absences should be kept to a minimum. Students should be in school except in cases of illness or emergency.
When your child is absent, please call the school at 748-4005, ext. 1 before 8:20 am.
Report your child’s first and last name, teacher’s name, and reason for absence.
Students who arrive at school after the 8:20 bell must report to the office for a tardy slip to be allowed into class. Students reporting directly to class without this slip will be sent to the office to obtain one. This procedure is necessary to avoid confusion, especially once attendance has been taken in the classroom.
If it is necessary to remove your child from school during the day, please follow the following procedures:
Send a signed and dated note with the child explaining the time of dismissal and who will be picking them up.
Come directly to the office and sign the student out. The office will call the classroom and have the student meet the parent/guardian in the office. Students will not be permitted to leave unless signed out and accompanied by an adult on the contact list.
Parents/guardians: Please be masked when entering school grounds and school office. See AUSD guidelines on Safety Strategies at our Schools.
