ATTENDANCE PROCEDURES. Grade School attendance (Grades K-6) must be taken twice daily, once in the morning and once after lunch. Children returning to school from being absent are asked to present a note to their teacher signed by the parent/guardian. High School and Junior High attendance is taken each period. Please check the Infinite Campus message center daily for students who are absent and report any student who does not arrive in your class to the office so that personnel can determine their location.
ATTENDANCE PROCEDURES. The District and the Association agree that regular attendance is imperative to the smooth operation of the school. Therefore, the lack of good attendance by a unit member will be considered misconduct and will be dealt with appropriately. Timely and appropriate notification prior to all absences is required. A reason should be given for the absence. Falsification of an excuse may lead to discharge. Attendance during one’s probationary period is a key factor in making the decision for permanent appointment. A unit member’s use of unapproved unpaid leave may result in disciplinary action.
ATTENDANCE PROCEDURES. 1. All students of middle school age (5th-8th grade) may join the activities of The Gate.
ATTENDANCE PROCEDURES. The Michigan compulsory attendance law states that a student must attend school until he/she is 16 years of age. The Board of Education of the Genesee Intermediate School District strongly supports a policy of utilizing every resource available to involve students in an ongoing educational program on the basis of regular attendance to the end that each child is encouraged through a conscious effort on the part of school personnel to reach his/her maximum potential in all areas of development. To benefit from the primary purpose of the school experience, it is essential that each student maintain a regular and punctual daily attendance in all assigned classes. Because class attendance is necessary for learning and academic achievement, as well as for developing the habits of punctuality, dependability and self-discipline, it is a relevant objective criterion which can be related to a pupil's course grade. The purpose of the attendance procedures is to help students develop these responsibilities and to maintain academic standards for earning credit. In order to carry out an effective attendance policy, the attendance procedures at each grade level must be consistent through the Genesee Early College program.
ATTENDANCE PROCEDURES. The entire process of education requires a continuity of instruction, classroom participation, learning experiences, and individual study in order to reach the goal of educational benefits for each student. This is an established principle of education which underlies and gives purpose to the requirement of compulsory education in this and every other state in the nation. The materials that schools have to offer can only be presented to students who are in attendance. Attendance reflects a student’s dependability and is a significant factor on a student’s permanent record. Future employers are as much concerned about punctuality and dependability as they are about academic record. All students shall attend school regularly. State Law requires a student between the ages of 7 and 16 must attend school unless the student is otherwise legally exempted or excused. School employees must investigate and report violations of the state compulsory attendance law. (Reference: Board Policy 3120, 3121, 3122, 3300) Absence Notification Verbal communication from either a parent or legal guardian is necessary when a student is absent or late. Students are reminded that attendance is their responsibility and that having their absences excused is the responsibility of the student and their parent or guardian. Phone calls should be received by 9:00 a.m. on the day of the absence. Any students who call in or misrepresent themselves as a parent will have disciplinary consequences assigned. Absence Policy Students can accumulate up to ten (10) absences each semester. This includes excused and unexcused absences, but does not include school-related absences.
ATTENDANCE PROCEDURES. A. Employees are responsible for reporting their absence by calling an assigned number at least one (1) hour prior to the starting time of their assignment. Calls are to be made to a central substitute answering service. The Board shall provide that the assigned number be available to secretaries on a twenty-four (24) hour a day basis. Employee should also contact their Administrator to report their absence.
ATTENDANCE PROCEDURES. I will abide by the hours of operation of the Preschool, which are 9:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. or 12:30 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.; depending on the class my child is attending. I agree to pick up my child at 11:30 a.m. or 3:00 p.m. depending on the class my child is attending unless prior arrangements have been made with preschool staff. I understand that if a child has not been picked up by the designated time and the parent/guardian has not contacted the Centre to notify of their delay, the procedure will be as follows: o The staff member will immediately try to contact the parent/guardian at the number listed on the intake form. They would then call the parent’s home number and work numbers as listed on the child’s registration form. o If no contact is made, the staff member would call the emergency contacts listed on the registration form. The staff member would explain the situation and request that they come and pick up the child. o Only if calling the emergency contact has been unsuccessful, the staff member would contact the Ministry for Children and Families and turn the child over to them. The staff member would post this information at the entrance of the Centre for the parent/guardian should these events take place. Initials
