Attendance

Attendance Matters! Regular attendance is one of the most important factors in student success. Students who attend school consistently are more likely to stay on track academically, earn course credit, and graduate on time.

⏰ School Start & Tardy Time

• School begins at 7:44 AM.
• Students are considered tardy at 7:48 AM.
• Students arriving after 7:48 AM must report to the front office and obtain a late check-in slip before reporting to class.

📚 Attendance for Credit

Students must attend at least 94% of the required school days each semester to earn course credit.

Absences should be verified through the front office with appropriate documentation. While parent notes allow students to make up missed assignments, they do not excuse absences for attendance purposes.

⚠️ Important Reminders

• Early checkouts count against attendance.
• Skipping class is considered an attendance violation and may result in disciplinary consequences.
• Students who accumulate five unexcused absences or five unexcused tardies in a semester may be considered habitually absent or tardy and may be referred for additional intervention and support.

🤝 Let's Work Together

Parents and students are encouraged to monitor attendance closely and communicate with the school regarding absences. Together, we can ensure every student remains on the path to academic success.

Remember:

Every class. Every period. Every day counts. Consistent attendance is essential for academic achievement, graduation, and future success.
