REPORT CARDS
Report cards are sent out after the end of each nine-week grading period for students in grades K-6. Parents shall sign the report card and students shall return the report card to school the next day. A signature does not denote agreement or disagreement with the grades. The signature is the school’s way of knowing that the parents have seen the report card. If parents have questions concerning the report card, they may call the school office and request a conference with their child’s teacher(s). Progress Reports are also sent home in the middle of the nine-week grading period.

ABSENTEEISM
When students miss school, they are required to bring a note from the parent or guardian stating the reason they were absent. If it is an acceptable reason (for example, sickness, a death in the family, etc.), the student has up to three school days to complete their make-up work and turn it in. If they fail to do this, it becomes a zero. In the case of an extended absence, the teacher can extend the time a reasonable length. Absences due to “going on vacation,” visiting relatives, etc. are not acceptable reasons. However, parents are urged to make arrangements to have their child’s work sent home if they know it will be an extended absence so they won’t get too far behind. If a student misses more than 10 days, we will require a doctor’s excuse for any further absences. Please remember to have your child at school every day possible. Completing make-up work in no way replaces the classroom experiences that students miss when they are absent.
