Attendance

Attendance, Sick and Tardy Policies

Attendance is very important to us here at Sycamore. Sycamore's school wide attendance goal is 96%. Help your leader be Proactive (Habit 1) and develop positive attendance habits now,

Children are expected to be in school unless they are ill.  Please call the school's 24/7 ATTENDANCE HOTLINE at (909) 982-4790 to report an absence or use the Report an Absence link.  If this is not possible, a note indicating the reason for the absence is required when your child returns to school. Please remember it is the parent’s responsibility to report absences accordingly to avoid truancies.  Thank you in advance for your cooperation!

Tardies: Students who report late to school must report first to the office before going to class. In the case of frequent tardiness, parents will be contacted by the teacher and the principal. Please make every attempt to have your child arrive on time.
 
Appointments: We urge you to schedule medical and other appointments so they do not conflict with class time. If it is necessary that students leave the school grounds before the regular dismissal time, send a note to the teacher indicating the time and reason. Students must be signed out in the office before leaving. They will only be released to their parents or someone authorized by their parents. If they return to school following an appointment, they must check in a the office before going to class. Doctor and dental appointments are the only excused absences with a doctor/dentist note.  We appreciate your efforts in having your child attend school any portion of a day when full attendance is not possible.
 

HOMEWORK/INDEPENDENT STUDY

If your chid must be out of school for an unexcused reason, (e.g. accompanying you on a vacation), you may request from the teacher that in Independent Study Contract be prepared for the time he/she will be absent. In that way, the student is not marked absent, keeps up with the class work, and the school receives its state funding for those days. Independent Study Contracts will be prepared for five or more days of absence. Teachers should have at least four days advance notice to prepare the contract. If the absence will be longer then five days, the teacher may require more advance notice to prepare an appropriate study plan.

If you child is out or school because of illness for more than one day you may want to pick up homework for him/her. Please call the office or contact the teacher. Please allow at least 24 hours from contact for the teacher to get your child't homework together for you. They will leave it in the office for pick-up.
