Attendance matters, and we want to make sure families know the difference between excused and unexcused absences. ✔️
✅ Excused absences (with proper documentation) will not count against the 90% attendance requirement. These include things like a doctor’s note, court or counseling verified by a note, funerals, school activities, and in-school suspension.
❌ Unexcused absences, such as illness without a doctor’s note, vacations, or out-of-school suspension, do count toward the attendance requirement.
Please remember to send a doctor’s or counselor’s note within 5 days so absences can be properly excused. Thank you for helping us make every day count for our Warriors! 💙💛
