Students returning from absences are expected to have an explanatory note from parents.
Absences will be recorded as “Excused” for the following reasons
Illness
Doctor/Dental Appointments

Parents should contact the office in person, in writing, or by phone for Planned Absences
Extended Absences:
Extended illness requires a doctor’s signature and explanation.
Family emergency extended absences require early notification of school personnel
Excessive absences (12 more days) will require a doctor's note for future absences to be excused
