Absences have an impact on a child’s ability to learn and a teacher’s ability to teach. In order for each child to benefit from the experience provided, a child’s attendance must be consistent. Excessive absences and tardiness are detrimental to a child’s progress and may result in lower grades due to poor performance, retention, and/or discontinuation in school.
The responsibility for attendance and/or tardiness lies with parents. For the health and well-being of all the other children in the class, if your child is ill at the beginning of the day, please keep him or her home until they are well.
