Attendance

Report an Absence

 

The following Attendance guidelines apply to ALL students.

If your child is going to miss a class for an appt or any reason other than technical difficulties, please make sure you are still reporting attendance so that the absence can be excused.

 You have 48 hours to report an absence for it to be excused.

PHONE: (913) 993-0212

Or

Spanish Hotline: (913) 993-0277

Attendance Line: Please state your students First and Last name, spell the last name, grade and reason for their full or partial day absence from school. 

If you are picking your student up early, we will call the student down when the parent arrives at Door 1 in the office.  Please be prepared to show your ID when picking up a student... we are not able to release students until photo ID is shown.

Helpful Tips:

  • Teachers take attendance at the beginning of each class period.  If your student is not present for roll call they will be marked absent
  • Unreported absences will receive an automated phone call at the end of the day.
  • ONLY parents/guardians may submit attendance in advance.  If you know there will be an appointment or other obligation in advance, you can always submit ahead of time. 
  • Parent’s/guardians may submit attendance in advance.  If you know there will be an appointment or other obligation in advance, you may always submit ahead of time.
  • Emailing the teacher that your student will miss class does not excuse the absence.  Teachers can only mark a student as present, absent or tardy.  They cannot mark your student out for an appointment.  Please call the attendance hotline.

IMPORTANT: NO emailed attendance.  Please be sure to use the attendance hotline to call in an absence.
