Attendance

Regular attendance is a necessary requirement for the learning process. The intent of this requirement is to encourage good student attendance and discourage the frequent, unnecessary and casual absences that characterize the attendance records of some students. It is hoped that its implementation will serve to improve student school attendance and thus improve the student’s academic and social achievement as a member of the school community.

In the case of a student’s absence from school, parents are required to call the main attendance office at (518) 237-9100 by 8:00 a.m. to inform us of the reason for the student’s absence.

Learn more about our Attendance policy, including what is considered an excused absence vs. an unexcused absence.
