ATTENDANCE: How You Can Help As A Family
Attendance Procedures: District Communications will be sharing the following message with families prior to the start of school. Please also include this or a variation in your family communication this week.
District 303 attendance procedures were updated and approved at the June 9, 2025, Board Meeting. All district procedures are available in the CUSD 303 Student Handbook found in the Parent/Community tab in the Information column of the districtd303.org website.
Updates to the attendance procedures were made to bring consistency across all schools within the district and to clarify student attendance expectations. One example of an update is the removal of the pre-arranged absence procedure. This aligns with the definitions of excused and unexcused absences found in Section 2.2.

PEER TUTORING
Peer Tutoring is BACK!!!!
September 17th
September 24th
Meets in the LRC at 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
- We are also online in a Google Meet, which is good for those students who can't get a ride to school, who have a quick question, or who are absent from school.
- Students just need to put the nickname "peertutoringscn" into the code/nickname spot.
- Students do not need to sign-up ahead of time, but they are welcome to email me ahead of time if they are in search of a specific subject/class, and I can check our tutor roster to see if we have coverage for that subject/class.
Tutoring is provided courtesy of our junior and senior National Honor Society students.
You are welcome to join PT, too! If you are looking to offer some after-hours office hours, feel free to join us in the LRC Wednesday nights.
