Attendance
ATTENDANCE, SICK AND TARDY POLICIES
Attendance is very important to us here at Pepper Tree. To avoid receiving attendance letters remember that, for the entire school year
- Tardies need to remain under four (4) ;and
- Absences should remain under ten (10) .
Children are expected to be in school unless they are ill. Please call your child’s school office to report an absence. If this is not possible, a note indicating the reason for the absence is required when your child returns to school.
Appointments: Doctor and dental appointments are the only excused absences. We appreciate your efforts in having your child attend school any portion of a day when full attendance is not possible. A telephone answering machine is available 24 hours a day to report absences.
Attendance/Absentee Line: To report an absent student call the attendance line at 909- 949-3627 and leave a message.
Be sure to include your child's name, date of absence, reason for absence, and your name and your relationship to the child.
Perfect Attendance Awards: Monthly recognition for perfect attendance will take place again this year. If your child is ill, we do ask that you keep him/her at home to avoid spreading the illness to other children, teachers, and staff.
