Attendance:

• Attendance will be taken at the beginning of each class. If students are Tardy, this will be documented in PowerSchool by the teacher.

• If students miss 3 or more classes in a single day, this will count as a full day absence. Students who earn 1 or more unexcused full day absences in a week will receive a parent phone call.
