Attendance
Absences and tardies, no matter the reason (sick, appointments, late bus or ride), will impact your opportunity to earn credits. If you have anything on your attendance record other than a "P" (for present), it will count towards a loss of credit. There are 6 grading periods in a school year. The following chart is an example of how absences can affect credits earned.
Number of Absences
Student is enrolled in 6 classes for 28 days = 2.3 credits (2.3 credits x 6 classes = 13.8 credits)

Excusing Absences through ParentSquare
-
Did you know that you can submit attendance notes in ParentSquare? For any absences not excused during the day, you will receive a message from ParentSquare that evening informing you of your student's absence. You can find out more about how to submit an attendance note through ParentSquare here. (Información en español sobre cómo enviar notas de asistencia aquí.)
