Attendance/Absence Reminders Attendance/Absence Reminders

zoom_out_map

Now that we are in the 2nd Semester, here are a few reminders for attendance and absences:

  • An absence can only be excused with a Doctor's note.
  • A "parent note" is an unexcused absence. However, please continue to send a parent note when your child is sick so we know why they are out.
  • We cannot accept an absence note after 4 days of the student's absence.
  • If the Nurse sends your student home and tells you they cannot return the next day, that absence is excused. Any absences after that will need to be excused by a Doctor's note.
  • If your child arrives at school after 9:30, they are marked absent for the day.
Please send all absence notes and documentation to our campus Registrar, Mrs. Vaughn. You can reach her at Kinzie.Vaughn@pfisd.net
