Absence Notes

Absence Notes
  • A student will not be counted absent for an appointment with a doctor, dentist, or other health care professional if the student attends school at any time on the day of the appointment and provides appropriate documentation. 

  • For absences to be excused, students must submit to the designated campus official, or submit to the campus designated email address below, a note signed by the parent that provides the following information:

    • The student’s name and grade

    • The date(s) of the absence(s)

    • The reason for the absence(s),

    • The parent’s name and signature, and

    • The parent’s daytime telephone number or contact number.

  • Clerks will only accept absence notes via email if it is submitted from the email address that is on file for the parent. If the parent is submitting a note from an email address that is not on file, the parent must either log into Parent Self Serve and change their email address, or submit a copy of their photo ID in order for the campus to make the attendance change in their child’s record.

  • Parents are required to submit absence notes within 48 hours (two business days) of the return of the student to campus or the absence will become an unexcused absence.

  • A note regarding a student’s absence signed by a student, even with the parent’s permission, will be considered a forgery, and the student will be disciplined.

  • A principal may require a physician’s verification of an illness at any time.

  • Parents should use the the campus email listed below to submit electronic absence excuses:
