Attendance and Tardies
Students are marked tardy if they arrive in the classroom after 8:00 a.m. We have an automated calling system that calls parents if a child is absent or tardy. This call lets parents know that your child is either not at school or came in late. Please continue to make every effort to have your child in his or her classroom on time everyday. Remember that we serve a free breakfast to all students present at 7:40 a.m. each day.
When your child is absent from school, please send a note. If your child is sick, just send a note asking for the day to be excused because your child was sick. Even if you go out of town, oversleep, have car trouble, etc., we need a note stating why your child has missed school. After your child accumulates several tardies or absences, you will receive notification from our Attendance Office asking for written excuses and verification of days absent. We appreciate your assistance in helping us keep up with your child's attendance.
If you have questions about your child's attendance or tardies, please contact Edna Reed, our school attendance clerk, by e-mailing ejreed@lcsd56.org or by calling 833-0812.
