4. FROM THE ATTENDANCE OFFICE – Welcome back! After a fun summer hope you are
ready for a great school year. Just a few reminders about
Attendance: Notes are not accepted, only phone calls.
The Attendance phone is available 24 hours a day. Give your folks the
number - 842-2918. When your parent/guardian has
called to excuse you to leave early, a green slip will be filled out and
posted on the board next to Attendance office.
Remember to pick it up before you go to class. You must give
your teacher a green slip if you are leaving class early. If you come
late to school, please come by the Attendance Office and sign
in. (The only exception to this is first thing in the morning. If
you arrive before 8:55 go directly to class) We will give you a pink slip
to get into class. If possible have a parent/guardian call before you get
here.....then your tardy will be excused.
Your absences must be excused within 48 hours. You will find more information about Attendance in your
handbook. Please share this with your parent/guardian. Any
questions, just stop by and ask us.
Have a good year!
