Attendance Policy (see Policy 0500.1:Secondary Attendance)

ABSENCES:

Parents or Guardians must call the Attendance Line any time your student is not in class. If your student has been marked absent in a class and you feel it is incorrect, please email the teacher.

Attendance can be viewed on PowerSchool.

PLANNED ABSENCE:

When students are planning to miss class for one or more days (vacations, college tours, club sports, surgery, etc.), a Planned Absence form should be filled out and turned in 48 hours prior to the absence. Please note that parents/guardians must still call the attendance line for the absence.

PERMIT TO LEAVE:

If your student needs to leave campus during the school day, a parent or guardian must call & request a Permit to Leave. Please leave a message stating:

Student's name & grade (spell the last name)
Time you would like your student to leave class
Reason for release

Permit to Leave passes are delivered to the classroom at the beginning of each class period. At least one hour's notice is requested and appreciated, and ensures that your student is released on time.

TARDIES:

A student will be marked tardy (T) if they are up to 10 minutes late to class. Starting at 11 minutes the student is considered Tardy Late (TL). The discipline for a tardy is 30 minutes of detention, and each Tardy Late will require 60 minutes of detention. Tardy Detention will be held after school on specific dates. These dates will be posted in the daily announcements, in the RHS newsletters, and dates can also be found at the main office. Loss of credit can occur if detentions are not served. Please note that tardies will be only be excused by a doctor’s note or official appointment notice only. (Doctor, Dentist, Orthodontist, Counseling, Court, etc.) Tardies can be viewed in PowerSchool.
