Attendance Policy
1. School attendance is the responsibility of the student and parent.
2. Student absences will be recorded as unexcused until a signed note is received by Ms. Brown at the attendance office. This note MUST be received within three days of the student’s return to school. Please make sure that your note has the child’s First and LAST name, grade, date of absence and reason for the absence. A daytime phone number is also needed.
3. If your child will be missing school and you know of it beforehand, a written note is required by the attendance office who in turn will give a Pre-Arranged Absence form (in word) or the Pre-Arranged Absence form (in adobe acrobat) to the student. This form will then be signed by all of the teachers and MUST be turned back into the attendance office BEFORE the absence is to take place for it to be considered excused.
4. Please remember that if you are signing out your child early that it must be completed by 3:30 pm and by 2:30pm on Wednesday .
5. You may reach Mrs. Brown in the attendance office at 407-623-1462 ext. 232 or by email at brownd7@ocps.net.
