Attendance
Parents co-operation is needed to maintain a positive attitude in their children to attend school each day. Each day is an important day in school, no matter what grade level. Family vacations should be planned to coincide with school vacations. It is unreasonable for parents to request school work from teachers for the child to do while on vacation.
When a child is absent, even for one day, the parent is asked to call the attendance clerk as early as 8:15 a.m. in the elementary buildings and 7:30 a.m. in the secondary buildings.
A child returning from an absence is asked to bring a note to explain the absence. Tardiness, refers to the arrival of a student to school at a time later than the official start time of the pupil's scheduled instruction. Unexcused tardiness includes oversleeping, skipping class and any other absence that is not excused. A note explaining the cause of tardiness is required.
Cancellation/delay of school
In inclement weather, please refer to the local radio and television stations after 6:30 a.m. The stations to listen to and watch include: WBNG-TV, Channel 12; WICZ-TV, Channel 40; WIVT-TV, Channel 34; WSKG-TV, Channel 46; WNBF, AM-1290; WAAL, FM-99.1; WENE, AM-1430; WEBO, AM-1330; WINR, AM-680; WMRV, FM-105.7; WKGB, FM-92.5; WMXW, FM-103.3; WHWK, FM-98.1; WKOP, AM-1360; WBBI, FM-107.5; WLTB, FM-101.7; AND WYOS, FM-104.1.
