Prompt and regular attendance is important. Missed school days can never be made up, even if missing assignments are completed. If a student is ill, parents are to call the school before 9:00 A.M. and send an email to the teacher. Students are expected at school by 7:55 A.M. School supervision begins at 7:30 A.M.
In adherence with Archdiocesan policy, students who are late or absent due to a medical appointment will be marked late or absent but, will be
excused from work habit points if they turn in a note from the doctor’s or dentist’s office.

A Whole day absence

/A Afternoon absence (left between noon – 2:30 pm)
L/ means student arrived late: from the time the bell rings until 30 minutes late. After that they have a morning absence “A/”.
