If your GFC student attends classes at either Red River High School or the Career Impact Academy, parents will need to notify those schools as well if their student will be missing class so those periods can also be excused. Our Attendance Secretary cannot code absences for classes that occur at other schools, she can only excuse the classes they take in person here at GFC.

RRHS Attendance Lines: When you call RRHS, please indicate to the administrative assistant at this school that your student is a GFC student.
