Attendance--school absences

Fri, 09/11/2020 - 11:37am

As you are aware, regular daily attendance is vital to the continuity of classroom instruction and participation in school activities especially during this semester of virtual learning. Students are required to attend classes/school activities  each day school is in session. If your child is absent, a note must be submitted to school after the student’s return, indicating the date and reason for tardiness or absence from a regular school session. A doctor’s certificate is required in cases of long-term absence due to illness. A note should also be submitted to request early dismissal.   Emails have always been an option but in the virtual environment, it is the best method.  Please send emails related to attendance to:  DRESAbsence@hcpss.org
