Absence Policy and Tardiness
Parents are asked to call the school office early in the morning of the first day of absence. The classroom teachers take attendance immediately after the bell rings. Late pupils should go directly to their classroom, rather than the office.
Health Policy
Pupils attending school should be in good physical health, without signs of contagious diseases that could infect others. Communicable diseases should be reported to the office so that exposure notices may be sent home with classmates. Parents are asked to keep their sick children home until fevers have subsided for 24 hours. School personnel cannot administer medicines to students. Children needing to bring medication to school should bring the medicine to the office with written instructions
from the doctor. No medications should be with the child or in the classrooms.
Unexcused Absences and Individual Study Plans
If a child is to have an absence of five or more days, it is possible for the teacher to prepare an Individual Study Plan (ISP), which then enables the District to receive funding for the absence. The parent, teacher and principal sign the plan, with one copy going to the Business Office. Last minute requests are difficult to fill. An optimum plan would be to have your advance notice match the number of days of the projected absence. Emergencies are exceptions, of course, and special arrangements may be made through the principal's office.
