CHSI Attendance Form

****IF YOU FEEL THAT YOU HAVE BEEN MARKED ABSENT IN ERROR, PLEASE REACH OUT TO THAT TEACHER****

Good attendance is critical for student success at CHSI. All absences will be coded unexcused unless this form or appropriate documentation is submitted. Absence's excuse form must be submitted within two (2) school days of the student's absence and/or return to school. Absence Excuse Form will NOT be accepted after TWO (2) school days. Absences for a personal trip are not excused according to state guidelines. 

*Automated calls from the County Office will be sent out if a student is marked absent or tardy  in class*

For high school students, attendance is recorded by period. To be considered in attendance, a student must be present for the entire period. If you are absent for more than half the period, you are considered absent. 

Students who check in late or check out early (more than halfway through a period) will be marked tardy for the period.

 **No check outs after 3:45pm**   

 Note: Four tardies equals an absence

At a high school level, students are given 8 days to be absent, per class, per semester. Students who exceed 8 absences run the risk of losing credit for their course(s). All absences remain unexcused until proof is received.  In this event, CCS Appeals Committee reviews the circumstances surrounding the absences and determines the action taken.  

 *** Please allow at least 1 week for attendance coordinator to adjust attendance accordingly before resubmitting***

Please see the link for CCS School Board Attendance Policy online for reasons regarding the absence.
