Absences:
Parents should call the Attendance Office to report a child’s absence. During school hours, you can reach Attendance at 242-5100 x3520. If you call after school hours, you may leave a message.
Appointments:
If a student must leave school during the day, a written parental request or phone call must be presented to the attendance office before he/she can be excused. The written request should include the reason for leaving school, the name of the doctor, dentist, or person to be seen, the parent’s signature, the time the student is to be excused, and the time the student expects to return.
An approved adult with proper identification must come into the building to sign students out. (If you need to update information regarding those approved to pick up, don't hesitate to contact our building registrar at 585-242-5100 ext. 3526.) Please plan appropriately for this when scheduling your appointments and daily schedules.
When returning to school, the student must sign in, but an adult does not need to accompany them.
The Student/Parent handbook, available through the main office, contains additional information about absences due to educational or instructional programs, religious holidays, tardiness, and truancy.
