Every school day is an opportunity for your student to learn, grow, and stay connected with their teachers and peers. Consistant attendance is important for academic success and social development. However, in case of illness, your child(ren) should be kept at home to allow recovery and prevent other students from contracting the illness if contagious.
To help ensure that all absences are reported in a timely manner and coded correctly, we ask that all absences are reported using the Absence Reporting form located right here on our website. Buy using the online submission to upload attendance notes, you never have to worry about a note being lost in a backpack or forgotten at home.
When possible, please report today's absence before 9:00 am.
How to Report an Absence
Reporting an absence is quick and easy!

Fill in the details: Provide your student's name, grade, contact info, and the reason for the absence.
Upload documentation: snap a photo of the medical note or a writtne parent note and upload it directly into the form.

Important Reminders:
Automated attendance calls are made every afternoon at 2:00 pm if a student is marked absent.
All absences are initially entered into our system as unexcused and will not be updated to excused unless proper documentation is received and approved.
You can monitor your student's daily attendance anytime through your ParentPortal.
Per (TEC Sec. 25.087), a district is not required to excuse any absence, even if the parent provides a note explaining the absence, unless the absence is an exemption under compulsory attendance laws . However, the principal may excuse an absence when there is acceptable cause such as personal illness, death in the family, or family emergency.
