Attendance & Absences

Absence is defined as a student missing all or any portion of the school day, for any reason. There are three types of absences: Excused, Unexcused, and Prearranged. Should your student be absent for any reason, please call the attendance line at (317) 259-5480 before 9:00 am. If your student is arriving late or leaving early for an appointment, please request a note from the dentist, doctor, etc. All notes should be given to the front office for record-keeping. Offices may also fax notes to (317) 259-5469.
