Cancer Foundation, “because kids with cancers are
really scared. Other diseases give you a better
chance for living a long time, with cancer you
need lots of medicines to be healthy again.”

allow me to periodically send out school reminders
and updates via text message using a safe and secure
application. To participate in receiving text message
reminders, simply text: 567.703.4167 with the message

Absences
P
arents, we appreciate and
encourage your courtesy
calls regarding your child’s
absence, however regardless
of your courtesy call, we are mandated
by law to make an attempt to contact you regarding
your child’s absence. This is achieved by the automated
calling system. This call asks you to verify your child’s
absence/tardiness as well as to send a note
in when the student returns to class. If
you have already called in then you
do not need to call again. This is
also why it is so important that you
provide us with a phone number
on your child’s Student Verification
Form where you can be reached or a
voicemail may be left. These were sent
home at the beginning of the year for your review and
returned to the school. There are certain absence codes
ie, PCA, Funeral etc that will not trigger the calling
system. In those cases you will not
receive a phone call because you
have sent in or filled out forms
letting us know of the child’s
absence and we have that on file.
Thanks for your cooperation.
