Absences are excused for personal illness, quarantine in the home, death of a relative, and for observance of a religious holiday. Others that are considered excused include serving as a page for the Indiana General Assembly and juvenile or criminal justice detentions. An unexcused absence occurs when a student is absent from school or an individual class without obtaining either the approval or consent of the principal, the principal's designee, or as authorized by Indiana law. If you have questions regarding this procedure, please call the school at 226-4268. Promptness to class is also very important.
Students are to be in their seats and ready to work when the tardy bell rings.
Teachers will confer with students after school concerning tardiness. The social worker will contact parents when poor attendance or tardiness becomes a serious problem.
