Student Attendance

If your student misses instruction, we ask that you add an absence request to indicate a day or range of days your student will not be in school.
 
If you believe that your student's attendance record is incorrect, we ask that you add an absence request for that day or range of days. Select INQ for Parent Inquiry/Correction. Please provide an explanation in the comments selection and upload supporting document (if applicable).
