Regular school attendance is essential for students to achieve their maximum educational potential. Each day of school provides students with valuable learning experiences that cannot be replicated. It is the responsibility of parents and students to ensure that all students attend school regularly and on time.

Definitions:

  • Tardy - Missing the first part of the school day (or period in middle and high school).
  • Absence - Missing 50% or more of the school day (or at least 4 periods in middle and high school)
  • Chronically Absent - Missing 10% of the school year, which equals 18 days over the course of the year or 2 days a month. This includes both excused and unexcused absences.
