District Attendance Expectations
Regular attendance is key to academic success. Our goal is to ensure every student has the opportunity to reach their full potential by attending school every day. Consistent attendance not only helps students stay engaged with their learning but also fosters a strong school community.
We expect all students to attend school daily and arrive on time, ready to learn. Absences, whether excused or unexcused, can impact a student's progress. Therefore, we encourage families to prioritize their child's attendance and to schedule appointments or family vacations outside of school hours whenever possible.
Our district offers support for families facing challenges that may affect attendance. If you need assistance, please reach out to your school’s administration so we can work together to ensure your child’s success.
For more details on our attendance policy, please visit our district site or contact the school directly.

Tardies/Early Dismissals
If a student arrives to school after the second tardy bell rings, they will be required to obtain a tardy slip to be admitted to class. If there is no adult present during morning drop-off, the doors have been locked and you must bring your student to the front office to be signed in.
Any student signed out before dismissal must bring a physician's note to school the following day to be excused. All dismissals are entered as unexcused until this is obtained.
After a student accumulates 8 unexcused tardies/early dismissals combined, it will convert to 1 unexcused absence.
