Attendance

Attendance Hotline:
651-982-8414

If your child will be late or absent from school for the day please report their absence to the school in one of the following ways:

  • Call the attendance line at 651-982-8414, or
  • Record your student's absences electronically via ParentVUE (including future and/or planned absences). Log into ParentVUE and select “Record absence” next to your child’s name to begin the process. School staff will review new entries daily as soon as possible.
  • If you are picking up your student early from school, please include the pickup time in the note area and our staff will send a pass to the student so they are ready to be picked up when you arrive. 

Both the phone and online options are available 24 hours a day. When you report the absence, you will need to give a reason for the tardy or absence. Also, it is very important that if your child arrives late to school that he or she go to the office to check in and receive a pass.

Detailed Instructions for online absence reporting

Student Absences

Students who are absent from school for any part of the school day must have a valid excuse from a parent. The parent/guardian(s) must notify the school prior to, or on the day of the absence, providing a valid reason (see links to left) for the absence(s), or send a note with the student upon returning to school. The student will need to bring this note to the Student Services office.

Absences in which a valid reason for the absence are not provided by a parent/guardian will be considered unexcused/truant. By law, county petitions need to be filed with the court system when a student reaches seven full or partial days of truancy or unexcused absences. In addition, classroom assignments and exams are subject to zero credit when a student is absent and unexcused for any given class period. Any questions regarding absences of this nature should be discussed with your child’s dean or the truancy interventionist. For attendance questions regarding letters you have received or county interventions please contact your student's Dean.
