Attendance is monitored and recorded by teachers, and excessive absences can result in disciplinary action or academic consequences.

Makeup Days

In the event of school closures or other unforeseen events that disrupt the regular school schedule, makeup days may be scheduled.

Documentation and Exemptions

Absences must be documented and explained with a valid reason, such as illness, family emergencies, or religious holidays. Parents or guardians are responsible for providing documentation or contacting the school to report student absences promptly. Exemptions may be granted for certain unavoidable circumstances with proper documentation.

Extended Absences

For extended absences, students may be required to complete assignments or make up missed work through alternative arrangements, such as online learning or tutoring. Clear communication and coordination between students, teachers, and administrators is essential to ensure that students can catch up on missed material.

Consequences of Excessive Absences

Excessive absences can have negative academic consequences. Students who miss a significant number of school days may struggle to keep up with their coursework, affecting their academic performance. In some cases, excessive absences may result in retention or other disciplinary measures to address attendance issues and prioritize student education.
