2026 Nu'uanu Summer School Report an Absence 
Dear Parents/Guardians of Nu'uanu School,

Consistent school attendance is an important contributor to a student's academic success and well-being. While we understand that illnesses or emergencies may prevent your child from coming to school, we have implemented the policy below to promote regular school attendance and prevent chronic absenteeism.
  • Students who arrive at school after 8:05am will be marked tardy. All tardies are considered unexcused.
  • Students who leave school before half of the day is over (i.e. 11:00am) or who arrive at school after half of the day is over will be marked absent for that day.
  • While we appreciate parent calls or notes for absences, per our attendance policy, all absences (including trips) are considered unexcused with the following exceptions: family emergencies, absences accompanied by a note from a medical professional, and cases in which your child is sent home from school due to illness or injury.
A student is considered chronically absent after missing 15 or more days over the course of an entire school year.

Students who are chronic absentees may be referred to Family Court. Pursuant to H.R.S. 571-11(2), Family Court can place a child under jurisdiction for truancy if the child is not attending school or is not receiving the educational services required by law.

NOTE (APPLICABLE TO REGULAR SCHOOL YEAR ONLY):  For unexcused absence or any absence not reported by 8:30 am, parents/guardians will receive an automated call from the school by 9:30 am informing you of your child's absence.  If you already reported the absence online or to the office, please disregard the message.

It is strongly recommended that a trip be taken during the days and/or months that school is not in session (ie. Spring Break, Winter Recess, Summer Break, and Fall Break). Please remember that these absences could affect your child's academic standing and will be unexcused absences. Teachers are not required to provide homework or make-up work for children on trips. If you have to take a trip during school time, please inform the office or teacher of the trip.  

Please complete this form to report your child's absence from school.
