School Attendance

School attendance is a baseline factor in determining student success.

Students are more likely to succeed in academics when they attend school consistently. It’s difficult to build their skills and progress if a student is frequently absent. In addition to falling behind in academics, students who are not in school on a regular basis are more likely to get into trouble with the law and cause problems in their communities.

Parents/guardians are legally responsible for making sure their children attend school every day it's in session. Children are not allowed to miss school without legal excuse.

Students are expected to attend school daily and to be punctual for all of their classes. Every effort should be made to avoid having students out of scheduled classes.
