Please use this form to report/excuse all absences with our Attendance Office. For past absences, please complete this form within 72 hours of your student's return to school.
If the student is leaving for an APPOINTMENT, this form must be submitted with 24-hour advance notice in order to maintain eligibility for same day athletics and extracurriculars. If an appointment is submitted without prior notice, then it will not be processed until the following day. Additionally, all students must be in attendance for at least one half day or two class periods on the same day of an athletics or extracurricular event in order to participate.
For verification purposes, this form is ONLY TO BE USED BY PARENTS OR GUARDIANS with Synergy/ParentVUE emails (submissions from Non-Synergy emails will not be excused and will trigger a notification). Be aware that attendance is a legal document, submissions to the form are reviewed daily by GHS staff to ensure their validity. Students MAY NOT excuse themselves from classes, regardless of their age. Students found to be misusing this form will face a Level 2 Discipline Referral for Forgery.
Once you fill out this form, you DO NOT need to call or email with the same information.
