Attendance

ATTENDANCE PROCEDURES

In the event that your student is absent or will be absent, please report the absence by:

  • Calling the office at (909) 357-5790.
  • Logging onto Q ParentConnection and reporting the absence. 
  • Sending a message through ParentSquare to Anabel Oliveros.
  • Sending a written note to the office.

Doctor's notes: If your child is out due to a doctor/dentist visit, we ask that you kindly turn in the doctor's note to excuse the absence.

Attendance calling is done daily in the office. Attendance is completed each morning by 8:50 a.m. Students are expected to be in their seats and ready to learn at the start of class (8:45 a.m.) every day. SART attendance forms and meetings with the principal/designee will be used to monitor students with chronic attendance problems, including tardies and late/early pick-ups.

Absences

California now has a positive attendance law: i.e., schools only receive funding for actual days of attendance. Please be sure your child attends school every day.

IMPORTANT: Whenever your child is absent, please call the school (357-5790) or send a dated note on the day of the child's return stating specifically the reason for the absence. If your child must be absent for more than five (5) days, you may contact his/her teacher to fill out an Independent Study Contract. The teacher needs to be given 3 days' notice. Upon the child's return and the successful completion of that contract (as verified by the teacher), those absences will be changed from "Excused" to "Independent Study Credit", which counts as the student being present, on the school records. Continuous absences may result in a SARB (School Attendance Review Board) referral. Note: Students may make up an absence at Saturday School.

Tardies

Students are expected to be in their seats at the start of class (8:45 a.m.) every day. Students who are tardy must report to the Attendance Clerk. Parents should be aware that if a student is tardy more than thirty minutes on three or more days during the school year and such tardiness is not excused, it shall be classified as truancy and shall be reported to the Department of Child Welfare and Attendance and to the parent. Continuous tardies may result in a SARB referral. Note: There is no way to make up a tardy. Early Dismissal: Checking out your child before the end of the school day will result in a reverse tardy, which will affect the receiving of attendance awards.
