The Importance of Attendance! The Importance of Attendance!

At Hueytown Intermediate School, the first morning bell rings at 7:45. The tardy bell rings at 7:55. Any students arriving after 7:55 are marked as tardy and must be signed in by a parent.


Regular and punctual attendance is essential to a student’s academic success and is required by state law. Regular and punctual attendance at school includes arriving at school on time and remaining for the entire school day unless an excuse is provided to school officials. Accordingly, students should be present at school each day except when absence is absolutely necessary.


Early Warning and Referral to the Jefferson County Family Court Under Alabama law, (Alabama Administrative Code, §290-3-1-.02(7) (c), seven (7) unexcused absences within a school year results in the student being considered truant for purposes of filing a petition with the court.

JEFCOED Attendance Policy

Permissible Absences may be excused for the following reasons:

1. Student illness

2. Inclement weather which make it dangerous to attend school

3. Legal quarantine

4. Death in the immediate family

5. Emergency conditions as determined by the principal or superintendent

6. Observance of a traditional religious holiday of local, national, or international origin when verified by the student’s minister or religious leader.


Any other absence not falling into the categories listed above or otherwise excused by the principal or superintendent or his or her designee will be deemed unexcused.


For each absence, a parent or custodian must provide an excuse within three (3) days of return to school following the absence. Failure to furnish such an excuse results in the child being considered truant for each day of the absence (Alabama Administrative Code, §290-3-1-.02(7) (c). An excuse must include a signed, written statement from the parent or physician stating the reason for the absence and must include the student’s name and the date(s) of the absence(s).


An absence will be considered unexcused under any of the following circumstances:

Failure to provide an excuse based on a reason described above within three (3) days of return to school. For purposes of this three (3) day period, the day the student returns to school will count as the first (1st) day.


Absences for any reason as explained in a parent note after seven (7) days have been excused by parent note during the school year. Only seven (7) days per school year may be excused by parent note. Any absences thereafter will be unexcused unless excused by a physician’s note or by permission of the principal.
