What should I do if my child is absent?

If you know about your child's absence in advance, please fill out the vacation permit slip and return it to school as soon as possible. 

If your child is ill, you can email me or call the office to request work to be sent home or picked up at the end of the school day.

My child is being picked up or has a bus change, what should I do?

If you know in the morning that your child needs to be picked up early or has a bus change, simply send a note in with your child.  If for some 
reason, a change happens during the day, please contact the office!! This is especially important in case there is a substitute teacher in the classroom.
