Attendance 

Regular attendance at school is a must. Good habits for understanding the importance of being at school start early. Attendance is a vital part of academic success.  Please note the following guidelines for students that are absent from school.

• Only five absences may be marked as excused with parent communication, but no official documentation. When a student has been absent  a total of five (5) unexcused days in a school year, the principal, or his/her designee, as a matter of concern, shall contact the parent.
• When a student has been absent a total of fifteen (15) unexcused days in a school year, the principal or his/her designee will send the first legal notice.
• When a student has been absent (unexcused) a total of twenty-five (25) days in a school year, the principal or his/her designee will send the second legal notice, the Administrator completes a “Truancy Affidavit,” and will refer student to truancy advocate.

Students will be recognized for perfect and outstanding attendance. Please be sure your student is at school every day and on time to help ensure his or her academic success.

Breakfast

Just a reminder, breakfast is served from 8:40-8:55 only.  Students arriving after 8:55 will need to head straight to class.  Students arriving  after 9:00 AM are considered tardy.  A parent will have to walk them to the door to sign the child in so they can receive a tardy slip.
