Attendance Policy Reminders

Ø All students should be in their classrooms/homerooms by 8:12. If they arrive after 8:12, they must report to the school office to sign in.  If a student is late due to running late, oversleeping, traffic, or missed the bus, they will be marked illegally tardy.  If a student receives 5 illegal tardies, they will receive a detention and then a detention for every 5 illegal tardies going forward.  Please try to get your children to school on time.

Ø If a student is absent, please send an email to excuses@lwasyr.org with the reason why your child was absent.  You can also call the school office and talk to the school nurse, that will count as you providing an excuse.  If the nurse texts or calls you asking why your child is absent, please respond, this will count as an excuse received as well.  If we do not receive an excuse, your child will receive an illegal absence.

Ø If a student is absent for vacation purposes or we do not receive an excuse for why they were absent, this will count as an illegal absence.  If a student receives 5 illegal absences, they will receive a detention.  

Ø If you have any questions regarding your child's attendance, you can email attendance@lwasyr.org 

We appreciate your efforts in getting your children to school and following our policies.
