Attendance Reminders - OCIS
To report a student absence:
- Email: OCISattendance@ocsdnj.org
- Please state student's name, grade, homeroom teacher, and reason for the absence
Please note that this email does not excuse your child from school. For the absence to be coded as an absence not counting towards truancy, a doctor's note or other proper documentation as outlined in the district attendance policy must be submitted to the main office when your child returns to school.
Tardy / Late To School
Students receive two free unexcused lates per marking period (arriving after 7:45am). Any additional unexcused late arrivals will result in a detention being issued as outlined in the OCIS student code of conduct. Students arriving with a doctors note will be marked as an excused late arrival.
Additional Reminders
- Please continue to check your PowerSchool Parent Portal regularly to stay updated on your child's grades, attendance, and more.
- If you do not already follow our OCIS Facebook page, we encourage you to follow for posts & news throughout the year.
- The Ocean City Intermediate School Website is a great resource for information as well!
