Focus is our student information system, and all parents/guardians should make sure that they have a Focus account! This will allow you to keep track of your student's grades, attendance, discipline, and more! If you don't have a focus account and need help creating one, please email focus@leepublicschools.net and we'll give you a hand. You can also email if you forgot your password or are having any issues accessing Focus.
Focus will automatically text the parents/guardians of any students who are marked absent for the day at 10:00am whether you notified us or not. If you get the text message and have any questions about the absence, please give us a call.
Students who are absent for the day may not participated in any school activities after school for that day. Exceptions can be granted in certain circumstances, only by the Dean of Students or Principal.
Students who are tardy to school in the morning (i.e., not in their first period class by the 7:58am bell) also have consequences:
- The first three unexcused tardies each quarter are "free" -- that is, no penalty applies.
- Beginning with the fourth unexcused tardy each quarter, students are issued a detention, and they may not participate in student activities (including athletics) after school that day. Coaches may still require such students to attend and watch.
- Excused tardies are only those for documented medical or legal appointments. Please be sure to provide documentation of the appointment for the student to be marked excused.
Attendance matters! Parents/guardians of students who accumulate excessive absences will receive warning notices from the school, and may be required to attend a meeting with the Dean and Principal. If the excessive absences continue, the school may file notice with the court system.
