ATTENDANCE – California Educational Code requires all students to attend school daily. For your child to receive the best education, please have your child or children attend school every day, on time.  If your child is absent, you must send a note to the teacher verifying his/her absences upon their return. We need a doctor’s note if your child is out three or more consecutive days or saw a doctor. 

 

Also, the district makes automated calls when your child is late, absent, or leaves early.  We have no control over these calls because the information is captured from the computer attendance program daily, by 8:30 am.
